stimuli.time.Clock

class stimuli.time.Clock

Clock which keeps track of time in nanoseconds.

The origin t=0 corresponds to the instantiation of the stimuli.time.Clock object. The time is measured either through the monotonic time.monotonic_ns() function or through the performance counter time.perf_counter() function, depending on which one has the highest resolution.

Methods
