We are trying to find out how much cpu time a procedure or function call takes. We've found the calendar package with function clock. Is there an equivilant which will give me cpu time? TIA. Todd Thompson

We've found the calendar package with function clock. Is there an >equivilant which will give me cpu time? TIA. The LRM does not call out a standard package for retrieving CPU time. Retrieving CPU time is therefore system dependent, and is probably best done through the use of pragma interface. I have written a package with a portable specification that gives simple CPU times. I have Unix and PC versions; the Unix version uses pragma interface and a little C program to get the CPU time. I can send this to anyone who wishes it; let me know by e-mail. If there is a lot of interest, I will post it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prof. Michael Feldman Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science The George Washington University Washington, DC 20052 +1-202-994-5253 mfeldman@seas.gwu.edu ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
