I'm trying to time an order statistic function implemented in SBCL. Googling around I found this timing function: (time form). However I'm not sure what it returns. It seems to be a large number but I can't find documentation specifying if the return value is milliseconds, nanoseconds, system time, etc. Does anyone know? ...
Hi! I'm rewriting an old program to do some new stuff, and suddenly I get a segmentation fault error on the following line of code: time_t seconds_since_time_begun = time(0); Why, oh why? Update: I have included the time.h header file in my code, and when I tried what pmg suggested below, both variables were 4 in size. When I tried...
I am writing a program that will be used on a Solaris machine. I need a way of keeping track of how many seconds has passed since the start of the program. I'm talking very simple here. For example I would have an int seconds = 0; but how would I go about updating the seconds variable as each second passes? It seems that some of the var...
Hi there, I am struggling with this. I have a value in seconds that I want to display in a label in HH:MM format. I have searched the internet for ages and found some answers, but either not fully understood them, or they seem like an odd way of doing what I want. If someone could help me out on this one that would be great! Bear in min...

Is there any way to get time in the same format as that on the sta...

I've written a feature for my library Rubikon that displays a throbber (a spinning as you may have seen in other console apps) as long as some other code is running. To test this feature I capture the output of the throbber in a StringIO and compare it with the expected value. As the throbber is only displayed as long as the other code...

The function mktime takes a struct tm as argument. One of the members of struct tm is tm_isdst. You can set this to 1 for wintertime, 0 for summertime, or -1 if you don't know. However, if during winter, you try to convert 2009-09-01 00:00, mktime fails to see that although it is currently winter, the date you are converting is summert...

Does anyone know how to get the currentTimeMillis in a way that satisfies Android 1.5, Android 2.0,...
