simple-benchmark 0.0.4

Installation

Using pip:

pip install simple_benchmark

Or the manual installation using git:

git clone https://github.com/MSeifert04/simple_benchmark.git
cd simple_benchmark
python setup.py install

Getting started

Suppose you want to compare how NumPys sum and Pythons sum perform on lists of different sizes:

>>> from simple_benchmark import benchmark
>>> import numpy as np
>>> funcs = [sum, np.sum]
>>> arguments = {i: [1]*i for i in [1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000]}
>>> argument_name = 'list size'
>>> aliases = {sum: 'Python sum', np.sum: 'NumPy sum'}
>>> b = benchmark(funcs, arguments, argument_name, function_aliases=aliases)

The result can be visualized with pandas (needs to be installed):

>>> b
        NumPy sum    Python sum
1        0.000003  1.032715e-07
10       0.000004  1.569619e-07
100      0.000007  7.155641e-07
1000     0.000042  6.153851e-06
10000    0.000382  6.030774e-05
100000   0.004034  6.026672e-04

Or with matplotlib (has to be installed too):

>>> b.plot()
