interpreting the fractional portion of time.clock() vs time.time() measurements

[john peter]

   let's say i'm taking timing measurements in Windows XP
       
      t1 = time.clock()
      ...
      t2 = time.clock()
       
      t3 = t2 - t1 = say, 0.018
        what is the unit of measurement for t3? is it correct to say that t3 = 18 milliseconds? microseconds?
       
            what if the timing function used for t1 and t2 was time.time()? is it still correct to
  say that t3 = 18 milliseconds? i kinda know that in Windows, time.clock() has
  higher resolution than time.time().  all i need is millisecond resolution. which
  of these functions would be easier to translate into millisecond units of measurement?
