This chapter provides functions to obtain the current real time, and the amount of processor time used.
Routines are provided to obtain the current time in two different formats, and to compare two such times.
A function is provided to return the current amount of processor time used. This allows the timing of a particular function or section of code.
nag_time_date_array (x05aa) returns the current date/time in integer format.
nag_time_date_array_string (x05ab) converts from integer to character string date/time.
nag_time_date_string_compare (x05ac) compares two date/time character strings.
nag_time_cpu (x05ba) returns the amount of processor time used.
