Time Duration Conversion with ard/duration

The ard/duration module provides utility functions to convert common time units into nanoseconds, which is the standard duration unit used throughout Ard.

The duration module provides:

• Nanosecond conversions from various time units
• Helper functions for readable duration specification in async and time-related operations

use ard/duration
use ard/async

fn main() {
  // Sleep for 1 second
  async::sleep(duration::from_seconds(1))
}

API

fn from_seconds(s: Int) Int

use ard/duration

duration::from_seconds(5)  // 5,000,000,000 nanoseconds

fn from_millis(ms: Int) Int

Convert milliseconds to nanoseconds.

use ard/duration

duration::from_millis(500)  // 500,000,000 nanoseconds

fn from_minutes(m: Int) Int

Convert minutes to nanoseconds.

use ard/duration

duration::from_minutes(2)  // 120,000,000,000 nanoseconds

fn from_hours(h: Int) Int

Convert hours to nanoseconds.

use ard/duration

duration::from_hours(1)  // 3,600,000,000,000 nanoseconds
