In duncantl/CallCounter: Run-time code measurement and tools for helping debugging

Measure the time for calls to a function via trace

Description

This function arranges to monitor all calls (direct or indirect) to the specified function and measures the time each call took and stores that value which can be accessed at any time via the return value of this function. This use trace to run the timing code at the start and end of each call to the function.

To stop collecting the timings for the function, untrace it.

Usage

timeFun(fun, tmr = genFunTimer(), where = globalenv(), ...)

Arguments

fun	the function or name of the function to trace
tmr	the list of functions closure whose start and end elements will be used to compute and store the timings.
where	passed to trace
...	passed to trace

Value

A list with three elements, allfunctions.
