Sometimes I just want to know how much time a function takes, but
at the same time I also want the result of the function. For this I
wrote the following function: def time_test(function, *args):
startTime = time.time() results = function(*args) endTime =
time.time() print('It took {0} seconds'.format(endTime -
startTime)) return results
I can do:
time_test(test_random, 100, 10 ** 5)
This outputs:
It took 17.01685857772827 seconds
and returns:
(98592, 100833, 0.977775133140936)
When executing:
time_test(test_random, 100, 10 ** 6)
it outputs:
It took 165.26371836662292 seconds
and returns:
(997103, 1002009, 0.9951038363926871)

That only times the function. I explicitly mentioned I want both the
needed time AND the output.
Sadly the quality of the answers on this list is going down. Here I
get an alternative that does only half what I want and when writing an
alternative for ‘!find’ I am told I could use ‘!find’ (which only
works in ipython, not python and which also not works with Windows).
I suggest that you stop asking so many question here. Get your cheque
book and go for paid support.

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
what you can do for our language.
