difftime() - I/O Function


Tutorials Cpp

Topic

How is "difftime()" used in C++?



Explanation

difftime() is an I/O function that returns the difference of time between two time values time2 and time1 in seconds.

Syntax:
    double difftime( time_t time2, time_t time2 );

Example:

   #include <stdio.h>
   #include <stdlib.h>
   #include <time.h>
   int main()
     {
       time_t time1, time2;
       time(&time1);
       printf("Wait till 2 seconds\n");
       do 
         {
           time(&time2);
         }while(difftime(time2,time1) < 2.0);
       printf( "Loop finished after 2 secs\n");
       return 0;
     }

Result:
    Wait till 2 seconds
    Loop finished after 2 secs

In the above example difftime() is used exit a loop after "2" seconds.
