Microtime
=========

[](#microtime)

Microtime is a library written in pure PHP that provides an interface and a class to work with microseconds. PHP offers the possibility to get the current timestamp in seconds and microseconds via the [microtime()](https://www.php.net/microtime) function, but the resulting two values must always be converted so that the number of microseconds since the unix epoch is obtained. The Microtime class does this work for you. This allows you to create a Microtime object from different formats and convert it into different formats like [DateTime](https://www.php.net/datetime) object, integer and string.
