execspeed 0.0.5

Simple tool for finding average function execution time

PyExecSpeed

A simple package for calculating the execution time of a function in a Python file

Usage:

checkSpeed(function, r) where function is any function from your Python file and r is the number of times to run it. The average execution time is returned rather than printed.

Example:

from speed import checkSpeed

def myFunc():
  x = 2
  for i in range(100):
    x *= i
  print(x)

n = 10
print(checkSpeed(myFunc, n)) # Repeats myFunc n (= 10) times and returns the average execution time. 
# A higher value of n will likely result in a more accurate value, but will take longer.


>>> 0.00003339

Notes:

• The output is a string, not a float. This is to prevent Python from returning a result in scientific notation.
• While checkSpeed() runs a function, it blocks printing within that function so the terminal isn't filled with potentially hundreds of prints
• Currently, passing arguments into the function argument e.g. checkSpeed(myFunc(a,b), 100) doesn't work. I'll add this soon, with the syntax: checkSpeed(function, r, <other>, <arguments>, <here>...), which will check the execution time of function(other, arguments, here...)
