Created for a research project to simplify the process of measuring runtimes.
This library encapsulates the clock_gettime function and provides a
timing structure to measure time intervals. A few nice functions are provided
that can start and stop the timer and return the elapsed time in units of
seconds, milliseconds, microseconds, and nanoseconds.
The developer also has the option to select the system clock to be used and also activate debugging facilities.
For use with GCC <= 4.4, remember to compile with -std=gnu99 or there will be
errors regarding using the clock_gettime function.
