This is terrible code. Even aside from the messed-up formatting (for
which your mail client is probably to blame), using eval() and a bare
"except:" clause is not a good way to use Python. And then you get
timeit to do as many iterations as the length of the array, which is
hardly indicative or meaningful for small values.

At least you're consistent, using an iteration count equal to the
length of the array again. But that just means that it's equally
meaningless.
Did you know that Python's timeit and C's clock don't even measure the
same thing?
