Measure Time Intervals

C++11 provides a flexible date and time library as part of the standard library that allows to define time points and time intervals. The library is called chrono and is available in the <chrono> header in the std::chrono namespace.

Exercise

Write a method which measures the execution time of a function

Time intervals

Exercise

Define the durations and intervals (i.e. do the TODOs)

#ifndef MODERN_CPP_TIME_INTERVALS_H
#define MODERN_CPP_TIME_INTERVALS_H
#include <chrono>
namespace modern_cpp {
namespace time_intervals {
using namespace std::chrono_literals;
// TODO define the following durations correctly
using day = std::chrono::hours;
using week = std::chrono::hours;
using year = std::chrono::hours;
// TODO define the following intervals correctly
static const std::chrono::hours half_day(1);
static const std::chrono::minutes half_hour(1);
static const std::chrono::seconds half_minute(1);
static const std::chrono::milliseconds half_second(1);
static const std::chrono::microseconds half_millisecond(1);
static const std::chrono::nanoseconds half_microsecond(1);
// TODO define the following intervals based on the type above
static const time_intervals::year week_in_years(1);
static const time_intervals::year day_in_years(1);
static const time_intervals::year hour_in_years(1);
static const time_intervals::year minute_in_years(1);
static const time_intervals::year second_in_years(1);
}
}
#endif //MODERN_CPP_TIME_INTERVALS_H

Bonus exercise

Define user defined literals for day/days and week/weeks and use them together with the chrono literals to define the intervals in the exercise above.
