STINNER Victor added the comment: For more info on time, you can refer to the PEP 418.
I may be interesting to add "sleep" to time.get_clock_info(). time.sleep() uses WaitForSingleObject() on windows. It may use internally a different clock with a different resolution than time.monoyonic (GetTickCount). The PEP says "WaitForSingleObject(): use the same timer than GetTickCount() with the same precision." I don't think that it's very useful to investigate the rounding issue on Windows. The resolution of Windows clocks is very coarse (15 ms, 10^-2) compared to Unix clocks (usually a few nanoseconds, 10^-9)... I changed recently the unit test to check if a sleep of 0.5 seconds gives a time delta of at least 0.5 seconds. The minimum delta can be set to 0.45 sec with a comment refering to this issue. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19999> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
