Go

// A common requirement in programs is getting the number
// of seconds, milliseconds, or nanoseconds since the
// [Unix epoch](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time).
// Here's how to do it in Go.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"time"
)
func main() {
// Use `time.Now` with `Unix` or `UnixNano` to get
// elapsed time since the Unix epoch in seconds or
// nanoseconds, respectively.
now := time.Now()
secs := now.Unix()
nanos := now.UnixNano()
fmt.Println(now)
// Note that there is no `UnixMillis`, so to get the
// milliseconds since epoch you'll need to manually
// divide from nanoseconds.
millis := nanos / 1000000
fmt.Println(secs)
fmt.Println(millis)
fmt.Println(nanos)
// You can also convert integer seconds or nanoseconds
// since the epoch into the corresponding `time`.
fmt.Println(time.Unix(secs, 0))
fmt.Println(time.Unix(0, nanos))
