我试图使用时间()来测量我的程序的各个点。

我不明白的是为什么前后的值是一样的?我知道这不是分析我的程序的最佳方式,我只是想看看需要多长时间。

printf("**MyProgram::before time= %ld\n", time(NULL));

doSomthing();
doSomthingLong();

printf("**MyProgram::after time= %ld\n", time(NULL));

我试过:

struct timeval diff, startTV, endTV;

gettimeofday(&startTV, NULL); 

doSomething();
doSomethingLong();

gettimeofday(&endTV, NULL); 

timersub(&endTV, &startTV, &diff);

printf("**time taken = %ld %ld\n", diff.tv_sec, diff.tv_usec);

我如何读取**时间花费= 0 26339的结果?这是否意味着26339纳秒= 26.3毫秒?

**时间= 4 45025,这是否意味着4秒25毫秒?

正如我从你的问题中看到的,看起来你想知道执行某段代码后所花费的时间。我猜你会很乐意在几秒钟内看到结果。如果是,尝试使用如下所示的difftime()函数。希望这能解决你的问题。

#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>

time_t start,end;
time (&start);
.
.
.
<your code>
.
.
.
time (&end);
double dif = difftime (end,start);
printf ("Elasped time is %.2lf seconds.", dif );

它们是一样的,因为doSomething函数发生得比计时器的粒度快。试一试:

printf ("**MyProgram::before time= %ld\n", time(NULL));

for(i = 0; i < 1000; ++i) {
    doSomthing();
    doSomthingLong();
}

printf ("**MyProgram::after time= %ld\n", time(NULL));

在linux上,clock_gettime()是一个很好的选择。 必须链接实时库(-lrt)。

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>

#define BILLION  1000000000L;

int main( int argc, char **argv )
  {
    struct timespec start, stop;
    double accum;

    if( clock_gettime( CLOCK_REALTIME, &start) == -1 ) {
      perror( "clock gettime" );
      exit( EXIT_FAILURE );
    }

    system( argv[1] );

    if( clock_gettime( CLOCK_REALTIME, &stop) == -1 ) {
      perror( "clock gettime" );
      exit( EXIT_FAILURE );
    }

    accum = ( stop.tv_sec - start.tv_sec )
          + ( stop.tv_nsec - start.tv_nsec )
            / BILLION;
    printf( "%lf\n", accum );
    return( EXIT_SUCCESS );
  }

Matlab味!

Tic启动一个秒表来测量性能。该功能记录执行tic命令时的内部时间。使用toc函数显示运行时间。

#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <thread>
using namespace std;

clock_t START_TIMER;

clock_t tic()
{
    return START_TIMER = clock();
}

void toc(clock_t start = START_TIMER)
{
    cout
        << "Elapsed time: "
        << (clock() - start) / (double)CLOCKS_PER_SEC << "s"
        << endl;
}

int main()
{
    tic();
    this_thread::sleep_for(2s);
    toc();

    return 0;
}
#include <ctime>

void f() {
  using namespace std;
  clock_t begin = clock();

  code_to_time();

  clock_t end = clock();
  double elapsed_secs = double(end - begin) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
}

time()函数只精确到一秒内,但是一秒内有CLOCKS_PER_SEC“时钟”。这是一种简单、便携的测量方法,尽管它过于简化了。
