Ambiguous requirement: any normal counter starts from zero... But what
"zero" represents may differ... Seconds since Jan 1 1970? Seconds since
midnight? Seconds since start of program?
>>> import time
>>> t0 = time.time()
>>> t0
1446941608.052
>>> t0 / 60.0
24115693.467533335
>>> t0 / 60.0 / 60.0
401928.22445888893
>>> t0 / 60.0 / 60.0 / 24.0
16747.009352453704
>>> t0 / 60.0 / 60.0 / 24.0 / 365.25
45.850812737724034
>>>
Almost 46 years worth of seconds.
>>> tStart = time.time()
>>> for x in range(10):
... time.sleep(x)
... print time.time() - tStart
...
36.5020000935
37.5040001869
39.5090000629
42.5099999905
46.5170001984
51.5190000534
57.5200002193
64.5210001469
72.5230000019
81.5230000019
>>>
Okay, I'm not the fastest typist (35 seconds from tStart to finishing the
loop code)
