timequick is a header-only library to quickly (but coarsely) time C/C++ code. Timing is done to nanosecond resolution, but overhead coming from timequick is unaccounted for.
Simply #include the timequick.h file, no linking needed.
Call tq_start to start timing, and tq_stop to record the time from the last tq_start call.
A message string could be added, and is used in the output of tq_stop.
The msg parameter of tq_start has no functionality, but can be used for readability.
Nesting is possible, and works like matching or balancing parentheses.
tq_set_unit can be used to set the unit in the output (this does not affect the timing resolution).
An example of usage is available in example.c, followed by its output.
timequick only uses function from the C standard and POSIX.
Nesting is possible, like matching or balancing parentheses.
This uses a dynamically allocated stack, so might make timing even coarser.
To disable the stack, change #define NEST 1 to #define NEST 0 in timequick.h.
tq_set_unit can be called with any value from the following enum to set the unit used for the output.
enum tq_unit { tq_SECONDS, tq_MILLISECONDS, tq_MICROSECONDS, tq_NANOSECONDS };
