This module provides various time-related functions.
It is always available, but not all functions are available
on all platforms.
This module provides various time-related functions. It is always
available, but not all functions are available on all platforms. Most
of the functions defined in this module call platform C library
functions with the same name. It may sometimes be helpful to consult
the platform documentation, because the semantics of these functions
varies among platforms.
An explanation of some terminology and conventions is in order.
