# C++ named requirements: TrivialClock (since C++11)

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | named req

The TrivialClock requirements describe the requirements satisfied by several clocks in the chrono library.

### Requirements

For a type TC:

- The type must meet Clock requirements.
- The types TC::rep, TC::duration, and TC::time_point satisfy the requirements of EqualityComparable, LessThanComparable , DefaultConstructible, CopyConstructible, CopyAssignable, Destructible (until C++17), Swappable, and NumericType.
- The function TC::now() does not throw exceptions.
- The type TC::time_point::clock meets the TrivialClock requirements, recursively.

### Standard library

The following types in the standard library satisfy TrivialClock requirements:

system_clock (C++11) | wall clock time from the system-wide realtime clock (class)
steady_clock (C++11) | monotonic clock that will never be adjusted (class)
high_resolution_clock (C++11) | the clock with the shortest tick period available (class)
file_clock (C++20) | Clock used for file time (typedef)
file_time_type (C++17) | represents file time values (typedef)
