sveljko 2:4d49720c7200 9 taken from the time returned from Pubnub's `time` operation (which can
sveljko 2:4d49720c7200 10 be initiated with pubnub_time()).
sveljko 2:4d49720c7200 11
sveljko 2:4d49720c7200 12 It's useful if you want a high-fidelity time used for srand() and on
sveljko 2:4d49720c7200 13 embedded system that don't have a Real-Time Clock.
sveljko 2:4d49720c7200 14
sveljko 2:4d49720c7200 15 Keep in mind that this requires a round-trip to Pubnub, so it will take
sveljko 2:4d49720c7200 16 some time, depending on your network, at least miliseconds. So, it's best
sveljko 2:4d49720c7200 17 used only once, at the start of your program.
