Answer 1

Is this what your trying to do?:-

The method of accessing "a called" functions in timeit is shown in the timit module in python.org.
I've changed the 'number'. to 1000......so amend as you see fit.

Answer 2

Well, I made this short code for to know the speed of each stm's.

=> stm2 is faster

Answer 3

Tricker
I know it, flipping the print functions will nothing happen ;)

Answer 4

(I think).....In your code, your not calling the function(s).....your just declaring/ defining the function 1 million times.

Answer 5

Change in time cause due to memory usage and processor which is changing continously about million times a second

Answer 6

Stm 2 is faster as it takes less time

Answer 7

Vishal Gupta have you tried to run multiple times?

Answer 8

Though there will be no difference in speed because starting from new line or terminating using semi colon results in same performance.

Answer 9

rodwynnejones Maybe your code shows that compress is faster. But why there's a big difference in time b/w yours and mine even though both code reflect same process.
I reckon it's a nerdy insight.

Answer 10

rodwynnejones That's straightforward right I ponder?
I have forgotten the basics.😶
