[SOLVED] How to write timer function correctly?

How to write timer function correctly?

I have several complex sort functions that take parameters from other functions I want to write a timer function that will take a complex function with parameters, which call look smthng this:

timer(sortFunc1(arrayGenerator(COUNT), arg1...,))
timer(sortFunc2(arrayGenerator(COUNT), arg1...,))
...
timer(sortFunc10(arrayGenerator(COUNT), arg1...,))

but my timer function throw 'func is not a function':

function timer(func) {
   let start = Date.now();
   func();
   console.log(Date.now() - start);
}

How I should write function timer to call it like way above?

I've tried reading articles about complex functions, returning a function from a function

Solution

You need to pass the function itself (without parentheses) and its arguments separately, and then use the apply method to call the function with the provided arguments:

function timer(func, ...args) {
   let start = Date.now();
   func.apply(null, args);
   console.log(Date.now() - start);
}

And this is how you use it:

timer(sortFunc1, arrayGenerator(COUNT), arg1, ...);
timer(sortFunc2, arrayGenerator(COUNT), arg1, ...);
// ...
timer(sortFunc10, arrayGenerator(COUNT), arg1, ...);
