Testing the speed and effectiveness of my programs

[SuperStinger]

I believe that I've been coding C long enough to start thinking about speed of my programs, to make sure they perform the same task, only faster!

I am using codeblocks and I'm wondering if there are any nifty programs or features inside codeblocks to check the speed of a particular function or program.

Many Thanks,
