Where saved
Default value
Function
Yes
Usage
time = timer.measure.t()
time
The elapsed time in seconds (1 µs resolution)
Example 1
timer.reset()
-- (intervening code)
time = timer.measure.t()
print(time)
This example resets the timer and measures the time since the
reset.
Output:
1.469077e+01
The output will vary. The above output indicates that
timer.measure.t() was executed 14.69077 seconds after
timer.reset().
Example 2
beeper.enable = beeper.ON
beeper.beep(0.5, 2400)
print("reset timer")
timer.reset()
delay(0.5)
dt = timer.measure.t()
print("timer after delay:", dt)
beeper.beep(0.5, 2400)
Enable the beeper.
Emit a beep and set the beeper.
Reset the timer.
Set a delay.
Verify the duration of the delay before emitting another beep.
Output:
