This is the simple way to use the module

Example1:

use Benchmark;

$first_time = Benchmark->new;

our code……

$second_time = Benchmark->new;

$final_difference = timediff($first_time,$second_time);

print “the code took, timestr($final_difference),”\n”;

that was a very simple way to know the time diff , we can use it to know the time taken by some part of the code in the program.

More sophisticated way:

use Benchmark;
sub first {

my(arguments) = @_;

}

timethese(100, { first => ‘first_sub(arguments)’});

The first argument to timethese is 100 (evaluate 100 times).

Hope this very small tutorial with Benchmark will help people get started.

Alternatively, use one liner perl script:

perl -ne 'if(/^>(\S+)/){$c=$i{$1}}$c?print:chomp;$i{$_}=1 if @ARGV' GIs.txt >sequence.fasta

where GIs.txt contains a list of GIs or accession IDs.
