timing -- time a computation

timing e -- evaluates e and returns a list of type Time of the form {t,v}, where t is the number of seconds of cpu timing used, and v is the value of the the expression.

The default method for printing such timing results is to display the timing separately in a comment below the computed value.

i1 : timing 3^30



o1 = 205891132094649

     -- 0. seconds



o1 : Time

i2 : peek oo



o2 = Time{0.,205891132094649}
