Yes, I think this does what you want: import time, sys def timelogger(logfile=sys.stdout): def actual_timelogger(function): def wrapper(*a,**kw): logfile.write("started at %s" % time.ctime()) t0 = time.time() function(*a, **kw) t1 = time.time() logfile.write("ended at %s" % time.ctime()) logfile.write("diff = %f %s" % (t1-t0, "sec")) return wrapper return actual_timelogger @timelogger(logfile=file("hierher", "a")) ### <<<<<< (1) def loops(a,b,c): sum = 0 for i in range(a): for j in range(b): for k in range(c): sum += 1 loops(100,100,100) Cheers, Frank -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
