hms Timer

A hms Timer is a hms::hms() scalar which if running has an attribute named start that specifies the system time when the timer was started.

Details

The elapsed time is the value of the scalar plus the difference between the current system time and the system time when the timer was started.

Examples

str(tmr_timer())
#>  'hms' num 00:00:00
#>  - attr(*, "units")= chr "secs"
str(tmr_timer(1.5, start = TRUE))
#>  'hms' num 00:00:01.5
#>  - attr(*, "units")= chr "secs"
#>  - attr(*, "start")= num 1.66e+09

x <- tmr_timer(1, start = TRUE)
print(x)
#> 00:00:01
Sys.sleep(0.1)
print(x)
#> 00:00:01
print(tmr_elapsed(x))
#> 00:00:01.136969
print(x)
#> 00:00:01
