What do you expect from this function?
Did you read manual entry for clock()?
On POSIX systems clock() returns (number of seconds * CLOCKS_PER_SEC)
spent by the process, not a system time/tick count...
Your program is doing _nothing_, so it's normal that clock() returns
the same number. Change sleep(1) to some busy loop and you'll see the
difference.
