Maple’s command Value(Time()) returns 13 digits number, which is number of
milliseconds from epoch. I wanted this value to be in seconds, to match the file changed
time from FileTools[Status]("A.txt" ) which uses seconds and not milliseconds. I
could not find an option to tell Date or Time to do this. Here is one way to do
this.
r:=Value(Time()); #r := 1652677498870 length(r); #13 r:=convert(r, base, 10); r:=ListTools:-Reverse(r); r:=r[1..-4]; #remove last 3 digits nops(r); r:=parse(cat(op(r))) #r := 1652677498 length(r); #10
This can be made into a function
