How do i test how long something takes?

Asked by

for i = 1, 100, -1
    -- codes
end

print() -- prints how much long it took for i to finish

There’s a function called tick, which can do this User#19524 175 — 5y

Check the difference in tick from before and after you run the loop:

local StartTick = tick()
for i = 1, 100, -1
    -- codes
end

print(tick() - StartTick) -- prints how much long it took for i to finish

I explain how this works better here.
