%% Timing in MATLAB

%%
% How long does it take to solve a linear system?
%
% Set the size of the system
n = 2000;

%%
% Define a random matrix and right-hand side
A = rand(n);
b = rand(n,1);
tic;             % start timer
x = A \ b;       % solve system
tend = toc;      % end timer
fprintf('Time to solve %f seconds.\n', tend)
