How do you calculate program run time in python? [duplicate]

Quick alternative

import timeitstart = timeit.default_timer()#Your statements herestop = timeit.default_timer()print('Time: ', stop - start)

python time runtime

You might want to take a look at the timeit module:

or the profile module:

There are some additionally some nice tutorials here:

And the time module also might come in handy, although I prefer the later two recommendations for benchmarking and profiling code performance:

python time runtime

I don't know if this is a faster alternative, but I have another solution -

from datetime import datetimestart=datetime.now()#Statementsprint datetime.now()-start
