How can I compare the performance of different functions in Python?

You can use the timeit module in Python to measure the execution time of small code snippets. Would you like an example?

Yes, please provide an example of how to use timeit.

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import timeit

def func1():
    return sum(range(100))

def func2():
    return sum([i for i in range(100)])

# Compare the two functions
print(timeit.timeit(func1, number=10000))
print(timeit.timeit(func2, number=10000))

This will give you the execution time for each function when called 10,000 times.

What if I want to compare more than two functions?

You can simply add more functions and call timeit for each one. Just make sure to adjust the number parameter based on your needs.
