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.
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
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.
