mpi_array.init.get_process_time_timer¶

mpi_array.init.get_process_time_timer()[source]¶

The best timer we can use is time.process_time(), but it is not available in the Python stdlib until Python 3.3. This is a ctypes backport for Pythons that don’t have it.

Return type:	`function`
Returns:	The `time.process_time()` function, if available, otherwise, if possible, an equivalent created using `ctypes`, otherwise `timeit.default_timer()`.
