In the following snippet, the loop in the global namespace takes twice as long
as the loop in the function namespace. Why?
limit = 50000000
def f1():
counter = 0
while counter < limit:
counter += 1
time1 = time.time()
f1()
print(time.time() - time1)
print('number of locals: ', len(locals()))
time1 = time.time()
counter = 0
while counter < limit:
counter += 1
print(time.time() - time1)
print('number of locals: ', len(locals()))
as the loop in the function namespace. Why?
limit = 50000000
def f1():
counter = 0
while counter < limit:
counter += 1
time1 = time.time()
f1()
print(time.time() - time1)
print('number of locals: ', len(locals()))
time1 = time.time()
counter = 0
while counter < limit:
counter += 1
print(time.time() - time1)
print('number of locals: ', len(locals()))
