Number of milliseconds in a second.

Usage

var MILLISECONDS_IN_SECOND = require( '@stdlib/constants/time/milliseconds-in-second' );

MILLISECONDS_IN_SECOND

Number of milliseconds in a second.

var bool = ( MILLISECONDS_IN_SECOND === 1000 );
// returns true

Notes

The value is a generalization and does not take into account inaccuracies arising due to complications with time and dates.

Examples

var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' );
var roundn = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/roundn' );
var MILLISECONDS_IN_SECOND = require( '@stdlib/constants/time/milliseconds-in-second' );

var ms;
var s;
var i;

function secs2ms( secs ) {
    return secs * MILLISECONDS_IN_SECOND;
}

for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
    s = roundn( randu()*20.0, -2 );
    ms = secs2ms( s );
    console.log( '%d seconds => %d milliseconds', s, ms );
}
