Time measurement of a function

[Powersoft]

Hi all,

I need to know how long it takes to execute a function.
Please can you help me with this.

Cheers Jan

Problem solved, using TICKS gives the right result

TEVAL(function()) will give you your time in sec as well.

In CAS (only), there's a cool shortcut for timing any expression; just press
Sto, comma, Enter
after the expression that you wish to time. It looks like "►," until you press Enter. (Sto can be typed either from the Sto menu button or Shift EEX).

Example: wait(2)►, Enter
Magically turns into: time(WAIT(2))
Returns: 2 (approximately!).

Notes: The time() function is similar to the TEVAL() function, but returns the seconds without any unit appended. Although the 3-keystroke shortcut only works in CAS, the time() function works in both Home and CAS... but "time" must be spelled in lowercase.
