Python Timer Class - Context Manager for Timing Code Blocks

Here is a handy Python Timer class. It creates a context manager object, used for timing a block of code. from timeit import default_timer class Timer(object): def __init__(self, verbose=False): self.verbose = verbose self.timer = default_timer def __enter__(self): self.start = self.timer() return self def __exit__(self, *args): end = self.timer() self.elapsed_secs = end - self.start self.elapsed
