RepeatedTiming
RepeatedTiming[expr]
evaluates expr repeatedly and returns a list of the average time in seconds used, together with the result obtained.
RepeatedTiming[expr,t]
does repeated evaluation for at least t seconds.
Details
- RepeatedTiming has attribute HoldFirst.
- RepeatedTiming[expr;] will give {timing,Null}.
- The value of expr returned by RepeatedTiming comes from the first evaluation of expr made by RepeatedTiming.
- RepeatedTiming always evaluates expr at least four times. It gives a trimmed mean of the timings obtained, discarding lower and upper quartiles.
- RepeatedTiming gives a result whose precision is typically between one and three digits, reflecting both variance in timing results and underlying precision of the operating system clock.
- RepeatedTiming measures "wall clock time" and is subject to the same limitations as AbsoluteTiming.
- RepeatedTiming[expr] uses a total time that is scaled based on initial measurements of the evaluation time for expr.
