If I'm just trying to keep track of something I do something fairly simple

>>> import time
>>> def testtime(num):
... 	start=time.time()
... 	for n in range(num):
... 		print n
... 	print time.time()-start
... 	
>>> testtime(10)
0
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8

Then we have to call time modules ,which ever function we need to call.

I guess I'm not totally sure what you are asking and could be off base with my comments, there may be other ways of doing this, I just find it easy enough to.
1) import the time module
2) Use time.time() to capture the starting time of an event
3) At the end of the event or function get the current time with time.time() and compute the difference from the beginning.

Then we have to call time modules ,which ever function we need to call.
