Stopwatch abstract class
A simple Stopwatch interface to measure elapsed time.

This method does not stop or start * the [Stopwatch]. */ void reset(); /** * Returns the elapsed number of clock ticks since calling [start] while the * [Stopwatch] is running. * Returns the elapsed number of clock ticks between calling [start] and * calling [stop]. * Returns 0 if the [Stopwatch] has never been started. * The elapsed number of clock ticks increases by [frequency] every second. */ int elapsed(); /** * Returns the [elapsed] counter converted to microseconds. */ int elapsedInUs(); /** * Returns the [elapsed] counter converted to milliseconds. */ int elapsedInMs(); /** * Returns the frequency of the elapsed counter in Hz. */ int frequency(); }

int elapsed() #
Returns the elapsed number of clock ticks since calling start while the Stopwatch is running. Returns the elapsed number of clock ticks between calling start and calling stop. Returns 0 if the Stopwatch has never been started. The elapsed number of clock ticks increases by frequency every second.
