我喜欢datetime模块提供的输出，其中时间增量对象以人类可读的方式显示天、小时、分钟等。

例如：

from datetime import datetime
start_time = datetime.now()
# do your work here
end_time = datetime.now()
print('Duration: {}'.format(end_time - start_time))

样本输出，例如。

Duration: 0:00:08.309267

or

Duration: 1 day, 1:51:24.269711

正如J.F.Sebastian所提到的，这种方法在当地时间可能会遇到一些棘手的情况，因此使用更安全：

import time
from datetime import timedelta
start_time = time.monotonic()
end_time = time.monotonic()
print(timedelta(seconds=end_time - start_time))

time.clock在Python 3.3中已被弃用，并将从Python 3.8中删除：请改用time.perf_counter或time.prrocess_time

import time
start_time = time.perf_counter ()
for x in range(1, 100):
    print(x)
end_time = time.perf_counter ()
print(end_time - start_time, "seconds")

稍后回答，但我使用内置的timeit：

import timeit
code_to_test = """
a = range(100000)
b = []
for i in a:
    b.append(i*2)
"""
elapsed_time = timeit.timeit(code_to_test, number=500)
print(elapsed_time)
# 10.159821493085474

在code_to_test中包装所有代码，包括可能的任何导入。number参数指定代码应该重复的次数。演示

在Linux或Unix中：

$ time python yourprogram.py

在Windows中，请参阅StackOverflow问题：如何在Windows命令行上测量命令的执行时间？

对于更详细的输出，

$ time -v python yourprogram.py
    Command being timed: "python3 yourprogram.py"
    User time (seconds): 0.08
    System time (seconds): 0.02

首先，以管理员身份打开命令提示符（CMD）并在那里键入，安装人性化的软件包-pip安装人性化

代码：

from humanfriendly import format_timespan
import time
begin_time = time.time()
# Put your code here
end_time = time.time() - begin_time
print("Total execution time: ", format_timespan(end_time))

输出：

您只需在Python中执行此操作。没有必要让它变得复杂。

import time

start = time.localtime()
end = time.localtime()
"""Total execution time in minutes$ """
print(end.tm_min - start.tm_min)
"""Total execution time in seconds$ """
print(end.tm_sec - start.tm_sec)
