 This module provides a monotonic() function which returns the value (in
 fractional seconds) of a clock which never goes backwards.
 
-On Python 3.3 or newer, monotonic will be an alias of time.monotonic from the
-standard library. On older versions, it will fall back to an equivalent
-Linux implementation: clock_gettime.
