I thought system.time() would return three numbers, the first two adding up to the third one. However, this does not hold in my system running Windows Vista Home Premium, with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor. For example, using the code in the help for system.time() (with one zero added), I got:
> system.time(for(i in 1:100) mad(runif(10000))) user system elapsed 0.27 0.00 0.25 Is this a problem with my system clock or am I missing something? Thanks.
