gettimeofday

This is an interface to gettimeofday(2). It returns an associative array containing the data returned from the system call.

When set to TRUE, a float instead of an array is returned.

By default an array is returned. If return_float is set, then a float is returned.

Array keys:

• "sec" - seconds since the Unix Epoch
• "usec" - microseconds
• "minuteswest" - minutes west of Greenwich
• "dsttime" - type of dst correction

The return_float parameter was added.

<?php
print_r(gettimeofday());

echo gettimeofday(true);
?>
