How can I use cProfile to profile my Python code?

You can use the cProfile module in Python to measure where time is being spent in your code. Just import it and call cProfile.run('your_function()').

Can you show me an example of how to use it?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import cProfile

def my_function():
    total = 0
    for i in range(10000):
        total += i
    return total

cProfile.run('my_function()')

What output should I expect from this?

You will see a list of function calls along with the time spent in each function, which helps identify bottlenecks.

Are there any options to save the profiling results?

Yes, you can save the results to a file using cProfile.run('your_function()', 'output.prof') and then analyze it with tools like pstats.
