How could I know the analysis time?

[linguan118]

Is there a command in OpenSees to capture the analysis time?
For instance, in Matlab, I can use
tic
...
toc

Thank you very much!

No body knows?

If you want to know the time taken to evaluate a section of code you can use the time command

time {
# Enter code here
} $count; If you specify a number here it will run the above code that many times and average result. Default is 1.

Alternatively a better method for bigger projects is to compare the clock times before and after. So could do it like:

set time1 [clock clicks -milliseconds]

# Enter all code here

set time2 [clock clicks -milliseconds]

puts "Elapsed time is [expr $time2-$time1] milliseconds or [expr ($time2-$time1)/1000] seconds"

Hope that helpful
