Time in AngelScript
// AngelScript offers support for times and durations; here are some examples.
#include <chrono>
#include <ctime>
#include <iostream>
void main()
{
    auto print = [](const auto& x) { std::cout << x << std::endl; };
    // We'll start by getting the current time.
    auto now = std::chrono::system_clock::now();
    print(std::chrono::system_clock::to_time_t(now));
    // You can build a time point by providing the year, month, day, etc.
    // Times are always associated with a time zone.
    std::tm then = {};
    then.tm_year = 2009 - 1900;
    then.tm_mon = 11 - 1;
    then.tm_mday = 17;
    then.tm_hour = 20;
    then.tm_min = 34;
    then.tm_sec = 58;
    auto then_tp = std::chrono::system_clock::from_time_t(std::mktime(&then));
    print(std::chrono::system_clock::to_time_t(then_tp));
    // You can extract the various components of the time value as expected.
    print(then.tm_year + 1900);
    print(then.tm_mon + 1);
    print(then.tm_mday);
    print(then.tm_hour);

    // as the second, respectively.
    print(then_tp < now);

    print(then_tp == now);
    // We can compute the duration between two time points.
    auto diff = now - then_tp;
    print(diff.count());
    // We can compute the length of the duration in various units.
    print(std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::hours>(diff).count());
    print(std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::minutes>(diff).count());
    print(std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::seconds>(diff).count());
    print(std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::nanoseconds>(diff).count());
    // You can use addition to advance a time by a given duration, 
    // or subtraction to move backwards by a duration.
    print(std::chrono::system_clock::to_time_t(then_tp + diff));
    print(std::chrono::system_clock::to_time_t(then_tp - diff));
}This AngelScript code demonstrates various operations with time and duration, similar to the original example. Here’s a breakdown of the main differences and adaptations:
AngelScript uses C++’s standard library for time operations, so we include the necessary headers:
<chrono>,<ctime>, and<iostream>.Instead of a
timepackage, we usestd::chronoandstd::tmfor time operations.The
printfunction is simulated using a lambda that wrapsstd::cout.Time points are created using
std::chrono::system_clock::now()andstd::chrono::system_clock::from_time_t().Time components are accessed through a
std::tmstruct instead of individual methods.Durations are represented by
std::chrono::durationobjects.Time comparisons and arithmetic operations are performed using standard C++ operators.
Duration conversions are done using
std::chrono::duration_cast.
Note that AngelScript, being closely related to C++, uses many C++ standard library functions for time operations. The exact syntax and available functions may vary depending on the specific AngelScript implementation and bindings used.
