Re: More Detailed Timing than Time::HiRes' clock method

Have you even looked at the documentation for Time::HiRes?

$your_code =~ s/clock/time/g;

...and then you should get something like:

perl nano foo.pl
It took 0.01027512550354 second

McDarren, How can you use 'nano' there? Cause when I followed your suggestion and calling 'nano' it gives me: `Can't open perl script "nano": No such file or directory.` [download] Nevertheless, without nano it prints the refined results though. BTW also, what is the difference between time() as used by you versus liverpole's suggestion of using 'tv_interval' and 'gettimeofday'?	[reply] [d/l]

"How can you use 'nano' there?..." I think perhaps my example was a little misleading. "nano" is the name of the script, and "foo.pl" is the name of the file being precessed. Think of it instead as: `perl nano some_random_file` [download] ..and it should make more sense. "..what is the difference between time() as used by you versus liverpole's suggestion of using 'tv_interval' and 'gettimeofday'?" Again, rtfm. As far as I can see, there is no real difference. The resolution that you get will be mostly system-dependant. Cheers, Darren	[reply] [d/l]
