#75092 — Execution Time and Memory taken by the program

I want a timer to calculate the execution time of the program
actually I am trying to solve problems on codechef.com and want to find out the time and memory taken by the program to execute.

I know we can import time.time() in unix  and time.clock() in windows
also there is a library timeit().
but it doesn't give the accurate details.
What I want is :
1 . Execution time taken by the program or the CPU time
2 . Users Time
3 . Time taken by Function
4 . Memory required by the program

Thank you

Most of what you want to measure is not Python specific but handled by your operating
system shell. For instance, to measure #1, #2, #4 and a bunch of other metrics, you can
do on Linux:

$ /usr/bin/time -v  your-program

and you will get a whole lot of info about the execution of your-program.

If you want to measure Python specific stuff such as the time taken by each function,
you can use the Python profiler to do that:
