Regarding time

Hi,

How can I print the time in seconds(only). I have get the execution time of a script. Now I want the duration in seconds. How can I do it?

Thanks in advance

With SECONDS variable.

Ex:

i=0
while [ $i -le 10 ]
do
  echo $SECONDS
  sleep 1
  (( i += 1 ))
done

SECONDS is a builtin varaible , it�s value is the number of seconds the script has been running.
