std::chrono::operator<<(std::chrono::duration)(3)

NAME
std::chrono::operator<<(std::chrono::duration) - std::chrono::operator<<(std::chrono::duration)

Synopsis
   Defined in header <chrono>
   template <class CharT, class Traits, class Rep, class Period>
   std::basic_ostream<CharT, Traits>& (since C++20)
   operator<<(std::basic_ostream<CharT, Traits>& os,
   const std::chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& d);
   Inserts a textual representation of d into os.
   Behaves as if it was implemented as
 std::basic_ostringstream<CharT, Traits> s;
 s.flags(os.flags());
 s.imbue(os.getloc());
 s.precision(os.precision());
 s << d.count() << units_suffix; // see below
 return os << s.str();
   In other words, the stream flags, locale, and precision are determined by the
   stream, but any padding are determined using the entire output string.
   The units_suffix is determined based on Period::type according to the following
   table.
   Period::type Suffix
   std::atto as
   std::femto fs
   std::pico ps
   std::nano ns
   std::micro µs (U+00B5) or us, it is implementation-defined which one
                        is used
   std::milli ms
   std::centi cs
   std::deci ds
   std::ratio<1> s
   std::deca das
   std::hecto hs
   std::kilo ks
   std::mega Ms
   std::giga Gs
   std::tera Ts
   std::peta Ps
   std::exa Es
   std::ratio<60> min
   std::ratio<3600> h
   std::ratio<86400> d
   None of the above, and [num]s
   Period::type::den == 1
   None of the above [num/den]s
   For the last two rows of the table, num and den in the suffix are Period::type::num
   and Period::type::den formatted as a decimal number with no leading zeroes,
   respectively.

Return value
   A reference to the stream, i.e., os.
