Question

My Machine details : 32bit OS (win-7) , dual core , clock speed : 2.93Ghz , language used = c#

I have for loop

for ( long d = 0 d<= K  ; d++) 
{
    //no instrucitons
}

if K is any long number.

What would be the formula to calculate time required (in sec) to complete this loop ?

Answer 1

You could use the Stopwatch.Elapsed Property of Stopwatch class

using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Threading;
class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Stopwatch stopWatch = new Stopwatch();
        stopWatch.Start();
        for (long d = 0; d<= K; d++)   
        {      
        //do something  
        }         
        stopWatch.Stop();
        // Get the elapsed time as a TimeSpan value.
        TimeSpan ts = stopWatch.Elapsed;

        // Format and display the TimeSpan value.
        string elapsedTime = String.Format("{0:00}:{1:00}:{2:00}.{3:00}",
            ts.Hours, ts.Minutes, ts.Seconds,
            ts.Milliseconds / 10);
        Console.WriteLine("RunTime " + elapsedTime);
    }
}
