Description | Use the seconds function to time events. The seconds function returns the total number of seconds since midnight, January 1, 1970 GMT. The long seconds form returns a value with a precision to a millionth of a second. However, this value is not normally accurate past the third decimal place because of processor delays. | ||||||
