MATLAB: Output tic/toc functions

millisecondstic toc

Hello!
I am using tic/toc functions, the output I got values like 2,103 I expected to have a value within the range of milliseconds since I am measuring the RT. What does that value mean? Thanks in advance!

The documentation says it returns time in seconds.
I only ever use tic toc for an approximate idea of time though and usually relative some other implementation rather than as an absolute value.
timeit
is usually more accurate if you want to measure how long a function takes though.
