C++ - everything to know about Time and Timers

For years, since 1983 when C++ was first released, developers were stuck with C time library, packed in ctime header file. It contains a couple of functions and precision up to a second sometimes just isn't enough. For everything else clock() should be used or OS (Operating System) provided function, which really breaks code portability. In C++11 things got much better, with Chrono module.
