Clock

VECTOR nullfix operator Clock;

symbol type
nullfix operator (prototype)
declaration 
VECTOR nullfix operator Clock;
description
Clock returns a six element row vector containing
the current time and date in decimal form:

[year month day hour minute seconds] = Clock;
example 
    t = Clock;
    // operation //
    print etime(Clock, t);
remarks
The first five elements are whole numbers. The sixth element
is accurate to several digits beyond the decimal point.

remarks

All info files in the directory specified by the info
entry in the configuration file or given by the INFOPATH environment
variable are scanned.
The keyword may contain '?' and '*' as special characters.
If more than one keyword matches the search pattern a list of matching
keywords will be printed.
If two ore more info files contain the same keyword, you have to pass
the name of the info file as the first argument.
If no keyword in the info files matches exactly a fault tolerant search
method will be used.
Specific menu entries of the last help page can be accessed using "::n" as
argument. Where n ist the number of the desired menu entry.
