    We can use the function defined in the librairy time.h. An example is given below. With the macro DEFINE_ADJUST, we evaluate the clock time before the iteration. With the macro DEFINE_EXECUTE_AT_END, we evaluate the clock time after the iteration. Finally, we write the the elapsed time in a text file.

    #include "udf.h"
    #include <time.h>
    clock_t start_t, end_t;
    DEFINE_ADJUST(start_t_evaluation,domain)
    {
        start_t=clock();
    }
    
    DEFINE_EXECUTE_AT_END(end_t_evaluation)
    {   
        FILE *fp=fopen("time_monitor.txt","a");
        
        end_t=clock();
        
        fprintf(fp, "%d seconds for iteration # %d\n",(end_t-start_t)/ (CLOCKS_PER_SEC),N_ITER);
        
        fclose(fp); 
    }
