Wait a given number of milliseconds With this block, you can force Kniwwelino to wait the specified number of milliseconds before executing the next block(s). Wait a given number of microseconds With this block, you can force Kniwwelino to wait the specified number of microseconds before executing the next block(s). Get the current date/time in a given format This block returns the current date and/or time as a text in various formats. Options: HH:mm:ss dd.MM.YYYY returns both time and date, such as 14:25:30 25.05.2018 dd.MM.YYYY returns only the current date, such as, 25.05.2018 HH:mm:ss returns only the current time, such as, 14:25:30 HOUR returns only the current hour, such as 14 MINUTE returns only the current minute, such as 25 SECOND returns only the current second, such as 30 Get the current date/time field as number This block returns the current date and/or time as a integer number. Options: YEAR returns the full year as four digits, such as 2018 MONTH returns the month starting with January as 1, such as, 5 DAY returns only the current day, such as, 13 HOUR returns only the current hour, such as 14 MINUTE returns only the current minute, such as 25 SECOND returns only the current second, such as 30 Get the current elapsed time in seconds This block returns in seconds the time which is currently elapsed since the start of the Kniwwelino. Get the current elapsed time in milliseconds This block returns in milliseconds the time which is currently elapsed since the start of the Kniwwelino. Example The following example shows how you can use the wait blocks in order to show different icons on the matrix in a row. After each icon, Kniwwelino will wait 1 second before showing the next one. This approach allows you to create animations. en/programmingblocks/time.txt Last modified: 2018/07/03 09:11by kniwwelino Log In
