And sometimes I want no newline, because I want to print something behind it. For example the time needed to calculate something: 02:13:01: Timing factorial_iterative (985): 31 For this I wrote: ### Have the possibility to give the stream instead of using stdout class TimedMessage: """ For printing messages with time prepended before it Has the possibilty to keep time print blank for when several messages are send shortly after eachother.
