SYSTEM_CLOCK(3I)				       Last changed: 1-8-98

NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     SYSTEM_CLOCK - Returns integer data from a	real-time clock

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     CALL SYSTEM_CLOCK ([[COUNT=]count]	[,[COUNT_RATE=]count_rate]
     [,[COUNT_MAX=count_max])

IMPLEMENTATION    [Toc]    [Back]

     UNICOS, UNICOS/mk,	and IRIX systems

STANDARDS    [Toc]    [Back]

     Fortran 90

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The SYSTEM_CLOCK intrinsic	subroutine returns information gathered
     from the real-time	clock.	SYSTEM_CLOCK accepts the following
     arguments:

     count     Must be type default integer.  If count is present, it is
	       set to a	machine-specific value based on	the current value
	       of the machine's	clock.	If there is no clock, it is set	to
	       -HUGE(0).  The machine-specific value is	incremented by one
	       for each	clock count until the value count_max is reached;
	       it is reset to 0	at the next count.  If there is	a clock, it
	       lies in the range 0 to count_max.

     count_rate
	       Must be type default integer.  If count_rate is present,	it
	       is set to the number of clock counts per	second.	 If there
	       is no clock, it is set to 0.

     count_max Must be type default integer.  If count_max is present, it
	       is set to the maximum value that	count can have.	 If there
	       is no clock, it is set to 0.

     The arguments to SYSTEM_CLOCK cannot be declared with a nondefault
     kind type.	 For information on default integer kind types,	see section
     4.3 of the	Fortran	Language Reference Manual, Volume 1, publication
     SR-3902.

     The name of this intrinsic	cannot be passed as an argument.

     Hardware counter values from the syssgi(2)	system call are	used on
     IRIX systems.  The	real-time clock	is used	on UNICOS and UNICOS/mk
     systems.

     Due to the	hardware characteristics of UNICOS systems, the	values
     returned in count and count_max are 64-bit	values on these	systems.
