microtimeReturn current Unix timestamp with microseconds

Опис

microtime(bool $as_float = false): string|float

microtime() returns the current Unix timestamp with microseconds. This function is only available on operating systems that support the gettimeofday() system call.

For performance measurements, using hrtime() is recommended.

Параметри

as_float

If used and set to true, microtime() will return a float instead of a string, as described in the return values section below.

Значення, що повертаються

By default, microtime() returns a string in the form "msec sec", where sec is the number of seconds since the Unix epoch (0:00:00 January 1,1970 GMT), and msec measures microseconds that have elapsed since sec and is also expressed in seconds as a decimal fraction.

If as_float is set to true, then microtime() returns a float, which represents the current time in seconds since the Unix epoch accurate to the nearest microsecond.

Приклади

Приклад #1 Timing script execution

<?php
$time_start
= microtime(true);

// Sleep for a while
usleep(100);

$time_end = microtime(true);
$time = $time_end - $time_start;

echo
"Did nothing in $time seconds\n";
?>

Приклад #2 microtime() and REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT

<?php
// Randomize sleeping time
usleep(mt_rand(100, 10000));

// REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT is available in the $_SERVER superglobal array.
// It contains the timestamp of the start of the request with microsecond precision.
$time = microtime(true) - $_SERVER["REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT"];

echo
"Did nothing in $time seconds\n";
?>
