Get Date/Time in Seconds with Error PassThru

Status: New

Much like the ever-popular With with Errors, "Get Date/Time in Seconds" would be great with error clusters for inputs/outputs.  This would help with coordinating timing (start/stop and duration).

 

Here would be an example of what the underlying code is that I currently use:

Pretty simple...  and an example of what the use could look like:

And a duration example:

I agree with the quick timing probe, but this is also useful with putting a timestamp on data for graphs, etc.  I have used this for many other reasons than just getting a delta time.
