problem.getdtime
problem.getdtime |
Purpose
Retrieve a double precision time stamp in seconds
Synopsis
seconds = problem.getdtime ()
Argument
|
seconds
|
Address of double precision variable of the time in seconds.

Example
The following example measures the elapsed time to read a problem:
start = p.getdtime ()
p.read ("NewMat","")
finish = p.getdtime ()
print ("Elapsed time to read = {0} secs".format (finish - start))
Further information
The timing information returned is provided by the operating system and is typically accurate to no more than 1 millisecond.
The clock is not initialized when Xpress Nonlinear starts, so it is necessary to save an initial time and then measure all times by difference.
