Syntax: time.get_clock_info(name) Parameter: name: A string value representing the clock name. Return type: This method returns a namespace object whose attributes represents the information about specified clock name. Following are the attributes of namespace object:

• adjustable: This is 'True' if the clock can be changed automatically or manually by the system administrator. Otherwise 'False'.
• implementation: The name of the underlying C function used to get the clock value.
• monotonic: It's value is true, if the clock can not go backward. Otherwise False.
• resolution: This attribute specify the resolution of clock in seconds.

# Python program to explain time.get_clock_info() method

# importing time module
import time

# Clock name
clock_name = 'clock'

# Get the information on
# the specified clock name
clock_info = time.get_clock_info(clock_name)

# Print the information
print("Information on '% s':" % clock_name)
print(clock_info) 

clock_name = 'perf_counter'

# Get the information on
# the specified clock name
clock_info = time.get_clock_info(clock_name)

# Print the information
print("\nInformation on '% s':" % clock_name)
print(clock_info) 

clock_name = 'process_time'

# Get the information on
# the specified clock name
clock_info = time.get_clock_info(clock_name)

# Print the information
print("\nInformation on '% s':" % clock_name)
