[Dev-C++] System specific?

 Good idea....if I could understand how to use it. The original function  
has been given to us by our teacher as a help...it's for three weeks now  
that I am in contact with C++. This routine should return a time (no  
matter which, but in seconds would be great), so I can measure the time  
passed from start to end of the task given to the user. Is there a  
portable solution or does the original function only work with gcc  
greater than 2.95.3 (perhaps gcc 3.x)?
In the code I use MyTime as follows:

----------------------------8< schnipp------------------------------
start=3DMyTime();
[task]
end=3DMyTime();
complete=3D(end - start) + (10 * penaltycounter);
----------------------------schnapp >8------------------------------

You understand what I want? ;)
