Use something like clock() or GetTickCount() or, more precise, timeGetTime().
Just take a value when you begin and then take one value when you stop and subtract and you have the time it took to execute.

I don't get it, how do I take a value?
Code:DWORD dwTick1 = timeGetTime(); // Do stuff DWORD dwTime = timeGetTime() - dwTick1;
Oh thanks
EDIT
Code:[Linker error] undefined reference to `timeGetTime@0'

Link with Winmm.lib.
Sorry about this... How?
Depends on IDE. But add under additional libraries or linker input libraries or some such.
oh thanks. Got it working.

Cool, very helpful -- I always thought Sleep() was guaranteed to sleep for at least n seconds. Apparently not.
