Python | os.times () method

os.times() is used in Python to get the current time of a global process.

Syntax: os.times ()

Parameter: No parameter is required.

Return Type: This method returns a tuple-like object with five named attributes which represents the current global process times. The five attributes are as follows:

  • user : It represents the user time.
  • system : It represents the system time
  • children_user : It represents the user time of all child processes.
  • children_system : It represents the system time of all child processes.
  • elapsed : It represents the elapsed real time since a fixed point in the past.

Note : On Windows, only user and system attributes are known and other attributes have value 0.

Code: using the os.times () method to getting the current time of the global process.

# Python program to explain the os.times () method

 
# import of the os module

import os

 
# Get the current global
# processing time
# using the os.times () method

curr_gp_times = os.times ()

 
# Print the current global
# processing time

print (curr_gp_times)

Exit:

 posix.times_result (user = 0.03, system = 0.01, children_user = 0.0, children_system = 0.0 , elapsed = 17370844.95)
