How can I implement this ipython code in python?

[1]  %timeit sum(list(range(1000)))

Ps: I want to do it in a single line of code. I have tried several times but failed every time.

Thanks.

  • `ipython` does some hidden stuff regarding the environment and problem namespace. So it will be hard to implement something with the module that's a simple. – hpaulj Feb 24 '19 at 19:29

This will give you the time taken (in seconds):

from timeit import timeit
timeTaken = timeit(lambda: sum(list(range(1000))), number=100000)

You can look up the timeit documentation for more options.
