Does the clock start on the snap because the play in which there was a penalty stopped the clock, or does it start on the ready for play because the clock was running before the play that included the penalty?

Which day of the week is it?
Seriously - this may be different depending on whether it's FED, NCAA, or NFL (or CFL - JR!).
NCAA: Starts on the snap because the play in which there was a penalty stopped the clock. I BELIEVE (but won't vouch 100%) Fed is the same.
I also believe NFL is different depending on the time of the game, but am not positive of that.
I do not think the status of the clock on the previous play is part of your decision making process in ANY code.
