load up the help docs for your compiler and do a search for the secret word...''time''.

With win32 you have GetTickCount() and SetTimer() for low resolution timing. For higher resolution, check out timeGetTime and the other timer functions in mmsystem.h

In linux, time(time_t *t) is used to find the current time in seconds. ftime(struct timeb *tb) is used to find the current time in milliseconds. The select statement can also be used as a high resolution timer.
