## @deftypefn {Function File} {} etime (@var{t2}, @var{t1})
## Return the difference in seconds between two time values returned from
## @code{clock} (@math{@var{t2} - @var{t1}}).  For example:
##
## @example
## @group
## t0 = clock ();
## # many computations later@dots{}
## elapsed_time = etime (clock (), t0);
## @end group
## @end example
##
## @noindent
## will set the variable @code{elapsed_time} to the number of seconds since
## the variable @code{t0} was set.
## @seealso{tic, toc, clock, cputime, addtodate}
