Hello,
For a exercise I had to write a function which keeps track how long a
anymous function takes with the help of time:now.
So I have this :
-module(time).
-export([elapsed_time/1]).
elapsed_time(F) ->
Begintime = erlang:monotic_time(),
F(),
Endtime = erlang:monotonic_time(),
Time = erlang:convert_timeunit(Endtime - Begintime,native ,
micro_seconds),
Time.
Now I want to test it in erl.
But then I see this output:
time:elapsed_time(Answer = fun() -> io:format("Sucess") end. ).
* 1: syntax error before: '.'
Can someone give me a tip where the syntax errror is.
Roelof
