| Both <i>time</i> and <i>nsec</i> return the time since the epoch 00:00:00 GMT, |
| Jan. 1, 1970. The return value of the former is in seconds and |
| the latter in nanoseconds. For <i>time</i>, if <i>tp</i> is not zero then <tt><font size=+1>*</font></tt><i>tp</i> |
| is also set to the answer.<br> |
