  2. C date and time functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_date_and_time_functions

    The C date and time functions are a group of functions in the standard library of the C programming language implementing date and time manipulation operations. [1] They provide support for time acquisition, conversion between date formats, and formatted output to strings.

  3. Epoch (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epoch_(computing)

    Software timekeeping systems vary widely in the resolution of time measurement; some systems may use time units as large as a day, while others may use nanoseconds.For example, for an epoch date of midnight UTC (00:00) on 1 January 1900, and a time unit of a second, the time of the midnight (24:00) between 1 January 1900 and 2 January 1900 is represented by the number 86400, the number of ...

  4. Year 2038 problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem

    Starting with Visual C++ 2005, the CRT uses a 64-bit time_t unless the _USE_32BIT_TIME_T preprocessor macro is defined. [36] However, the Windows API itself is unaffected by the year 2038 bug, as Windows internally tracks time as the number of 100-nanosecond intervals since 1 January 1601 in a 64-bit signed integer, which will not overflow ...

  5. Real-time computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_computing

    Real-time programs must guarantee response within specified time constraints, often referred to as "deadlines". [2] The term "real-time" is also used in simulation to mean that the simulation's clock runs at the same speed as a real clock. Real-time responses are often understood to be in the order of milliseconds, and sometimes microseconds.

  6. System time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_time

    Closely related to system time is process time, which is a count of the total CPU time consumed by an executing process.It may be split into user and system CPU time, representing the time spent executing user code and system kernel code, respectively.

  7. Comparison of Java and C++ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Java_and_C++

    C++ Java C++ is compiled directly to machine code which is then executed directly by the central processing unit. Java is compiled to byte-code which the Java virtual machine (JVM) then interprets at runtime. Actual Java implementations do just-in-time compilation to native machine code.

  8. Orders of magnitude (time) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(time)

    Clock time and calendar time have duodecimal or sexagesimal orders of magnitude rather than decimal, e.g., a year is 12 months, and a minute is 60 seconds. The smallest meaningful increment of time is the Planck time―the time light takes to traverse the Planck distance, many decimal orders of magnitude smaller than a second. [1]

  9. Java syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_syntax

    A snippet of Java code with keywords highlighted in bold blue font. The syntax of Java is the set of rules defining how a Java program is written and interpreted. The syntax is mostly derived from C and C++. Unlike C++, Java has no global functions or variables, but has data members which are also regarded as global variables.
