Time measurement

[motrip94]

Hey Guys, sry for my bad English, i am from Germany. 

I need a code that measures the time of execution. 

Pseudocode:

Start1 = Systemtime;

Import

End1 = Systemtime;

Time1 = end1 – start1 ;

Create a graphic ;

End2 = Systemtime;

time2 = end2 – end1

Correlation (...) ;

End3 = Systemtime;

time3 = end3 – end2 ;

lm();

End4 = Systemtime;

time4 = end4 – end3 ;

Print time 1,2,3,4 ;

The datetime() function gives you the current time.

%let starttime=%sysfunc(datetime());

/* code */

data _null_;
starttime = &starttime;
endtime = datetime();
execution_time = endtime - starttime;
put starttime datetime19.;
put endtime datetime19.;
put execution_time time8.;
run;

How can I use this in Proc Step?

Don´t work if i Try with Import a CSV-File in Proc-Step 😞

You don't use this in a step, you wrap it around the steps you want to measure.

The code that you want to measure goes where my comment (/* code */) is.
