C# - Two Ways To Measure Time In C#

Two Ways To Measure Time In C# .NET

//DateTime and TimeSpan

DateTime start = DateTime.UtcNow;

Thread.Sleep(2000);

DateTime end = DateTime.UtcNow;

TimeSpan timeDiff = end - start;

Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToInt32(timeDiff.TotalMilliseconds));

//Stopwatch

Stopwatch stopwatch = new Stopwatch();

stopwatch.Start();

Thread.Sleep(2000);

stopwatch.Stop();

TimeSpan stopwatchElapsed = stopwatch.Elapsed;

Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToInt32(stopwatchElapsed.TotalMilliseconds));

Convert Milliseconds To Human Readable Time Lapse

TimeSpan t = TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(ms);

string answer = string.Format("{0:D2}h:{1:D2}m:{2:D2}s:{3:D3}ms",

                        t.Hours,

                        t.Minutes,

                        t.Seconds,

                        t.Milliseconds);
