Yeah, I'm a programming newbie, so sorry if it's a stupid question. I need to measure a time shorter than 1 milisecond (I need to measure 500 nanoseconds to be exact), but <time.h> seems to give me only the option to have miliseconds. Can someone give me some tip of how to do that? By the way, I'm using a GCC port for Windows that came with Devcpp, maybe it's an useful information. Thank you very much for the help :) o/
