In programming, it’s important to optimize code for performance. One way to do this is by measuring how long it takes for code to execute. In this blog post, we will explore a Python snippet that can be used to calculate the time it takes to execute a particular piece of code.

Python’s time module provides a simple way to measure the execution time of a program. The time.time() function returns the current time in seconds since the epoch (January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC) as a floating-point number. We can use this function to measure the time before and after a particular piece of code and calculate the difference to get the total time it took to execute the code.
