matlab-tictoc 1.1.0

A timing package that mimics MATLAB's tic and toc functionality

MATLAB Tic Toc

A Python module to make timing in python easier by mimicing MATLAB's tic and toc functions. tic starts a timer by recording the current time, and toc uses the start time to find the elapsed time.

The included func_timer decorator uses tic and toc to give the elapsed time of the wrapped function.

Usage

from tictoc import tic, toc

tic()              # starts the global timer
timer = tic()      # assigns an instance of the Timer class to the timer var without affecting the global timer

toc()              # Prints elapsed time from tic() call
toc(timer)         # Prints elapsed time for the timer given

time = toc(timer)  # Assigns elapsed time to a variable

timer.reset()      # Resets the timer var start time

tic()              # Restarts the global timer

Examples

from time import sleep
from tictoc import tic, toc, func_timer


tic()  # starts global timer
sleep(1)
toc()
sleep(2)
toc()

Elapsed time is 1.00547 seconds.

Elapsed time is 3.00886 seconds.

timer = tic()
sleep(1)
print(f'Timer Assigned to var: {toc(timer)}')
print(f'Global Timer: {toc()}')

Timer Assigned to var: 1.0057699

Global Timer: 4.013537

@func_timer
def func():
    sleep(2)

func()

Elapsed time for function func is 2.00556969 seconds.
