How to time any function

One key aspect during performance testing is to time how long a function takes to execute. In this small post, I will show how to create a generic timing function that takes as argument the function to time and shows the time to execute along with the output of the function:

/// <summary>
/// Times the execution of a function and outputs both the elapsed time and the function's result.
/// </summary>
static void Time<T>(Func<T> work)
{
    var sw = Stopwatch.StartNew();
    var result = work();
    Console.WriteLine(sw.Elapsed + ": " + result);
}


To call the time, use the following invocation style:



Time(() => DoSomeWork());
