Message 155698 - Python tracker (original) (raw)

The new patch, .diff exposes gettimeofday as time.gettimeofday() returning (sec, usec) pair.

A tuple is not the preferred type for a timestamp: Python uses float and is not going to use something different (the PEP 410 was just rejected).

I don't see what we need a new function: there is always time.time().

I'm closing this issue because I consider it as done.
