Time compute

[janedoe0611]

How to compute the time taken to execute a program without using loop and shift register?

Hi Jane,

use two time value functions, like HighResolutionRelativeSeconds. Place them before and after your other code (DATAFLOW-wise) and subtract their output…

What's the point about loops and shift registers?

This is one of those rare times that Frame Sequences make sense.  Create three Frames.  In the first, put a High Resolution Timer.  In the second, place the code you want to time.  In the third, place a second High Resolution Timer.  Subtract the first Time from the second.  The Frames guarantee that the first Time is before any of your code runs, the second is after, so the time between is the time for your code.
