hi!

I have used gettimeofday() to calculate the difference between a random character that appears in the screen, and a character pressed by a user.
And i retrieve it in seconds.

I want to retrieve in centesimals.

This is not c programming:
For example: 1,24 seconds
Centesimals = 4?

The same timeofday() which returns this?

Code:

       struct timeval {
               long tv_sec;        /* seconds */
               long tv_usec;  /* microseconds */
       };

Well the answer you seek is stored in the microseconds field

yes, that's what i used.
But how can i get the centesimals only with the microseconds?
I think that a second haves 1000000 microseconds?

This function is retrieving in seconds:

Code:

int time(void) {
  
int InicialTime, FinalTime, TotalTime;
struct timeval inicio, fim;

  TempoInicio = (inicio.tv_sec + inicio.tv_usec*1.e-6);
  TempoFim = (fim.tv_sec + fim.tv_usec*1.e-6);
  
  TotalTime = FinalTime - InicialTime;
  return TotalTime;
}

I want centesimals

Good, so how many microseconds does a centisecond have then?
