How to keep track of time (in milliseconds)

kevjar · February 2, 2020, 8:29pm

I’m trying to track how long my program takes to run (the time for each step in milliseconds). I’m an experienced coder but I don’t know a lot about c++ that isn’t vex-related. Can anyone help me out?

If im not mistaken the controller itself has a timer when you run a program.
