### `time()`
Returns the number of milliseconds since 'some point', like Java's `System.nanoTime()`.
It returns a float, which has 1 microsecond precision (0.001 ms)
Returns the number of milliseconds since 'some point', like Java's `System.nanoTime()`, which varies from system to
system and from Java to Java. This measure should NOT be used to determine the current (date)time, but to measure
durations of things.
it returns a float with time in milliseconds (ms) for convenience and microsecond (μs) resolution for sanity.
