Shown below is the SimpleBenchmarker class. Instantiate a variable named benchmarker which is an instance of the SimpleBenchmarker class.
class SimpleBenchmarker
def run(description, &block)
start_time = Time.now
block.call
end_time = Time.now
elapsed = end_time - start_time
puts "\n#{description} results"
puts "Elapsed time: #{elapsed} seconds"
end
end

puts "\n#{description} results"
puts "Elapsed time: #{elapsed} seconds"
end end benchmarker = SimpleBenchmarker.new

benchmarker = SimpleBenchmarker.new
Does that answer your question?
