std::chrono::steady_clock(3cxx)

✨ std::chrono::steady_clock ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the std::chrono::steady_clock page 💖 this one's a <chrono> girlie from libstdc++ (the C++ standard library, iykyk) and honestly she's the most trustworthy clock in the whole friend group.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

std::chrono::steady_clock — the monotonic clock. she only goes up, no cap 📈💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

💜 Public Types

• typedef chrono::nanoseconds duration — the duration type she rolls with, and yes it's nanoseconds ⏱️
• typedef duration::period period — the period of that duration, borrowed straight from duration
• typedef duration::rep rep — the rep of that duration, also borrowed from duration (she's not reinventing anything, periodt)
• typedef chrono::time_point< steady_clock, duration > time_point — a time_point made of steady_clock + duration. that's her signature look ✨

🦋 Static Public Member Functions

• static time_point now () noexcept — grab the current time. it's noexcept, so no surprises, we love a low-drama function 🫶

🌈 Static Public Attributes

• static constexpr bool is_steady — the flag that says "yes, I'm steady." it's constexpr, so she's compile-time famous 👑

💅 Detailed Description 💅

Monotonic clock. that's the whole vibe 💫

the time she returns has the property of only increasing at a uniform rate — so she never goes backwards, never jumps around, never does that chaotic thing. main character energy fr fr 🕰️👑

ngl, "only increasing at a uniform rate" is the flex here. if you need a clock that won't betray you mid-measurement, this is her 💖
