TIME - obtain time of day as a number.

(ANSI Standard)

Usage:

#include <time.h>
timenum = time(timeptr);

Where:

time_t *timeptr;

points to a location in memory that can hold a time number. The number returned by "time" will also be stored in this location. If "timeptr" is a null pointer, as in

timenum = time( NULL );

"time" will not attempt to store the time number in this way.

time_t timenum;

is a number representing a given time and date.

Description:

"time" returns the time of day as a number. The "time_t" type is defined in <time.h>. This number can be converted to a more intelligible time format using "ctime" or "localtime".
