How to know how many bytecodes a python program executes at runtime

Question

I want to know if there is an easy way to get the number of python bytecodes which are executed at runtime. I know I can modify the source code of the interpreter and get what I want, but it is better that there are some standard APIs or other easy ways.

Answer 1

If you want to get to know the Python byte codes that are executed at run time then use.

sys.settrace

have a look at the dis module. This can tell you which byte code is in which line.
