5.To find the time of execution of a php script
   -------------------------------------------------------------------


 

The time taken to execute a PHP script can be found by exploding microtime() function , this gives the microseconds and seconds separately.
   Adding these two gives total start time .Then, the script  for which the execution time needs to be calculated is placed.At the end of this script,
   the end time is calculated in the same way as the start time is calculated. The start time subtracted from the end time gives the total execution time of the
   PHP script placed in between.
   It is a wise idea to use this time-script lines in very critical applications to find out the execution time taken by the application.




 

   <?php
   list($usec,$sec)=explode(" ",microtime());
   $start_time=(float)$usec+(float)$sec;
   function print_hello_world()
   {
           for($i=0;$i<30;$i++)
           {
                   echo "hello world  ";
       }
   }

   print_hello_world();
   list($usec,$sec)=explode(" ",microtime());
   $end_time=(float)$usec+(float)$sec;
   $total_time=$start_time-$end_time;
   echo "<br>The Time Taken To Execute This Script is".$total_time." seconds\n";
   ?>
