R: Human readable times

bench_time {bench} | R Documentation

## Human readable times

### Description

Construct, manipulate and display vectors of elapsed times in seconds. These are numeric vectors, so you can compare them numerically, but they can also be compared to human readable values such as '10ms'.

### Usage

    as_bench_time(x)

    bench_time(x)

### Arguments

`x` | A numeric or character vector. Character representations can use shorthand sizes (see examples).

### Examples

    bench_time("1")
    bench_time("1ns")
    bench_time("1us")
    bench_time("1ms")
    bench_time("1s")

    bench_time("100ns") < "1ms"

    sum(bench_time(c("1MB", "5MB", "500KB")))
