Class BasicTimer

An instance of BasicTimer is able to count the duration between its start and stop. Every start-stop cycle resets the object to its default state.

See Timer if you need pausing and StopWatch for time segmentation (laps).

1. Using a single BasicTimer to perform consecutive countings

   import { BasicTimer } from "timecount/utils";
   
   const timer = new BasicTimer();
   
   while (thereAreThingsToDo) {
       timer.start();
   
       doTheThings();
   
       timer.stop().to("second");
       // 0.8956 s
   }
   

2. Using a TimeWriter to write BasicTimer results

   import { TimeWriter } from "timecount";
   import { BasicTimer } from "timecount/utils";
   
   const timer = new BasicTimer();
   const writer = new TimeWriter({ verbose: true });
   
   timer.start();
   
   timeWriter.write(timer.elapsedTime, "millisecond");
   // 0.54021 milliseconds
   
   doSomething();
   
   const time = timer.stop();
   
   timeWriter.write(time, "millisecond");
   // 10156.663207 milliseconds
   
   timeWriter.write(time, "second");
   // 10.156663207 seconds
   
   timeWriter.write(time, "minute");
   // 0.169277720116666668 minute
