Can you show me some examples of using timeit in Python?

Sure! The timeit module in Python is used to measure the execution time of small code snippets. Would you like a basic example?

Yes, please provide a simple example.

Here's a simple example:

import timeit

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

print(timeit.timeit(test, number=10000))

This will time how long it takes to execute the test function 10,000 times.

What if I want to time a lambda function?

You can time a lambda function like this:

import timeit

timer = timeit.Timer(lambda: sum(range(100)))
print(timer.timeit(number=10000))

This will measure the time taken to execute the lambda function 10,000 times.
