Can anyone tell me why this code doesnt work in djgpp.


#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <dos.h>

int main(void)
{
   clock_t start, end;
   start = clock();

   delay(2000);

   end = clock();
   printf("The time was: %f\n", (end - start) / CLK_TCK);

   return 0;
}

When i run this after compiling in gcc it always prints 0.00000!
I compiled it with  ->   gcc timer.c -otimer.exe
When i compile in borland c 3.1 or microsoft c 1.0 it works fine and give the 
expected result(some floating point number - about 2.?????)

any ideas?
