\subsection{Detailed Description}
The timer class provides a way for mlpack methods to be timed. 

The three methods contained in this class allow a named timer to be started and stopped, and its value to be obtained. A named timer is specific to the thread it is running on, so if you start a timer in one thread, it cannot be stopped from a different thread.

Get the value of the given timer.

Stop and reset all running timers. 

This removes all knowledge of any existing timers. \mbox{\label{classmlpack_1_1Timer_aa052af5e185f178dcfd540b95d2b1d11}}

\subsubsection{Start()}
{\footnotesize\ttfamily static void Start (\begin{DoxyParamCaption}\item[{const std\+::string \&}]{name }\end{DoxyParamCaption})\hspace{0.3cm}{\ttfamily [static]}}



Start the given timer. 

If a timer is started, then stopped, then re-\/started, then re-\/stopped, the final value of the timer is the length of both runs -- that is, mlpack timers are additive for each time they are run, and do not reset.

\begin{DoxyNote}{Note}
A std\+::runtime\+\_\+error exception will be thrown if a timer is started twice.
\end{DoxyNote}

\begin{DoxyParams}{Parameters}
{\em name} & Name of timer to be started. \\
