Talk #566
Updated by Kretz, Matthias almost 10 years ago
Calculations with times, dates and durations are necessary in many different contexts. In scientific codes we are often interested in time durations, be that for measuring run-time or calculations on time points. C++11 introduced the std::chrono classes to the standard library to simplify these tasks. In the talk, I will give an overview over the facilities provided by C and point out pit falls. Thereafter, std::chrono is introduced and its solutions and shortcomings are discussed.
