It was not a piece of art, but something I thought could be useful to share. > If you want a function that returns a result and a time elapsed, why > don't you pack the time and the result in a tuple, a list or a > dictionary? it takes 20 seconds, if you are slow. I already did that. Sort of. I made a version that defaults to printing the needed time and returning the result, but can me made to put the time in a tuple with the result. I must be very slow. :'-( It took more as 20 seconds. -- Cecil Westerhof Senior Software Engineer LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/cecilwesterhof -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
