median() method from fcf::NTest::DurationBasic class

fcf::NTest::TimeDuration median(int a_level = 0) const

File: test.hpp ( link_to_the_declaration_in_the_file , link_to_the_implementation_in_the_file )

Available from version: 1.2.5

Returns the median duration for a specific level using the internal histogram.

The median method provides the median value of the duration distribution. Unlike the average, the median is more robust against outliers in the measurement data.

This method relies on the internal fcf::NTest::HistogramBasic to estimate the median value.

Arguments

int a_level = 0

- The index of the measurement level.

Result

fcf::NTest::TimeDuration

- The median duration recorded for the specified level.

Example: Calculating Median Duration

Demonstrating how to get the median time per iteration.

#define FCF_TEST_IMPLEMENTATION #include <fcfTest/test.hpp> #include <thread> #include <chrono> FCF_TEST_DEFINE("Bench", "Stats", "MedianTest") { fcf::NTest::Duration bench(1000); bench([](){ std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds(1)); }); fcf::NTest::TimeDuration med = bench.median(0); fcf::NTest::log() << "Median duration: " << med.str(true) << std::endl; fcf::NTest::log() << bench.histogram(0).toBarChart() << std::endl; } int main(int a_argc, char* a_argv[]) { bool error = false; fcf::NTest::cmdRun(a_argc, a_argv, fcf::NTest::CRM_RUN, &error); return error ? 1 : 0; }

Output:
