Detailed Description

a Class to measure passing time.

The class computes passing time by counting the number of ticks per second. That is, the following code computes the execution time in seconds:

tm.start();
// do something ...
tm.stop();
cout << "Total time: " << tm.getTimeSec() << endl;

It is also possible to compute the average time over multiple runs:

for (int i = 0; i < COUNT; i++)
{
tm.start();
// do something ...
tm.stop();
}
cout << "Average time per iteration in seconds: " << tm.getAvgTimeSec() << endl;
cout << "Average FPS: " << tm.getFPS() << endl;
