Hello to everybody!
I have a very simple question. Is there a Matlab routine which returns the current system time showing up to milliseconds?
Thanks to everybody in here and my best regards!
Jason.

Warning: although it is millisecond precision, it is not necessarily millisecond accuracy.

Right you are. I myself also can write down time in nanoseconds, but it doesn't make sense.
