Time(seconds, nanoseconds)

Return values:

First function returns [0, nanoseconds], second one returns [seconds, nanoseconds]

Parameters:

nanoseconds – number of nanoseconds in specified time
seconds – number of seconds in specified time

Example:

Time ( 50 * 1000 ); # - create time object of 50 microseconds

Time (3, 100);

# - create time object of 3 seconds and 100

nanoseconds

Time( 3 * MICRO_SECS ); # - create time object of 3 microseconds

Time( 4 * MILLI_SECS ); # - create time object of 4 milliseconds

NOTE: MICRO_SECS and MILLI_SECS are constants defined in VS_constants.inc.
