Java example to calculate the execution time
get execution time
This example program will describe you the way that how
one can calculate or get the execution time of a method or program in java. This
can be done by subtracting the starting time of the program or method by the
ending time of the method. In our example java program we are using System.currentTimeMillis()
method for getting current time in milliseconds.
We have created a method callMethod() and before
calling this method we have stored the current time in a variable startTime and
after the method is done with its working we have stored the current time into
another variable endTime. Now by subtracting the startTime with endTime
we can calculate the execution time of method.
Here is the full example code of GetExecutionTime.java
as follows:
GetExecutionTime.java
import java.util.*;
public class GetExecutionTimes
{
public GetExecutionTimes(){}
public static void main(String args[])
{
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
GetExecutionTimes ext=new GetExecutionTimes();
ext.callMethod();
long endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println("Total elapsed time in execution of
method callMethod() is :"+ (endTime-startTime));
}
public void callMethod(){
System.out.println("Calling method");
for(int i=1;i<=10;i++)
{
System.out.println("Value of counter is "+i);
}
}
}

Output:
C:\javaexamples>javac GetExecutionTimes.java
C:\javaexamples>java GetExecutionTimes
Calling method
Value of counter is 1
Value of counter is 2
Value of counter is 3
Value of counter is 4
Value of counter is 5
Value of counter is 6
Value of counter is 7
Value of counter is 8
Value of counter is 9
Value of counter is 10
Total elapsed time in execution of method callMethod() is :16 |
