Functions for timing, as well as implementations of Stack and List structures.
The tictoc
package provides the timing functions
tic
and toc
that can be nested. It provides
an alternative to system.time()
with a different
syntax similar to that in another well-known software
package. tic
and toc
are easy to use, and are
especially useful when timing several sections in more than
a few lines of code.
In general, calls to tic
and toc
start the
timer when the tic
call is made and stop the timer
when the toc
call is made, recording the elapsed
time between the calls from proc.time
. The default
behavior is to print a simple message with the elapsed time
in the toc
call.
The features include the following:
nesting
of the tic
and toc
calls
suppressing
the default output with quiet = TRUE
collecting the timings in user-defined variables
collecting the timings in a log structure provided by the
package (see tic.log
)
providing a
custom message for each tic
call
using custom
callbacks for the tic
and toc
calls to
redefine the default behavior and/or add other
functionality (such as logging to a database)
In addition, this package provides classes
Stack
(implemented as a vector
) and
List
(implemented as a list
), both of
which support operations push
, pop
,
first
, last
, clear
and size
.
