  6. CPU time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_time

    POSIX allows this clock to start at an arbitrary value, so to measure elapsed time, a program calls clock(), does some work, then calls clock() again. [1] The difference is the time needed to do the work. The POSIX function getrusage() returns more than just the CPU time consumed by a process in a POSIX environment.

  7. Binary clock - Wikipedia

    Time Technology's Samui Moon binary-coded sexagesimal wristwatch. This clock reads 3:25. Binary clocks that display time in binary-coded sexagesimal also exist. Instead of representing each digit of traditional sexagesimal time with one binary number, each component of traditional sexagesimal time is represented with one binary number, that is, using up to 6 bits instead of only 4.
