FUNCTION
<<time>>---get current calendar time (as single number)
INDEX
time
ANSI_SYNOPSIS
#include <time.h>
time_t time(time_t *<[t]>);
TRAD_SYNOPSIS
#include <time.h>
time_t time(<[t]>)
time_t *<[t]>;
DESCRIPTION
<<time>> looks up the best available representation of the current
time and returns it, encoded as a <<time_t>>. It stores the same
value at <[t]> unless the argument is <<NULL>>.
RETURNS
A <<-1>> result means the current time is not available; otherwise the
result represents the current time.
PORTABILITY
ANSI C requires <<time>>.
Supporting OS subroutine required: Some implementations require
<<gettimeofday>>.
