SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/times.h>
times(buffer)
struct tms ∗buffer;
DESCRIPTION
Times returns time-accounting information for the current process and for the terminated child processes of the current process. All times are in 1/HZ seconds, where HZ is either 50 or 60 depending on your locality.
This is the structure returned by times:
/∗
static char times_h_SCCS_ID[] = "@(#)times.h4.1 10/26/82";
