Track time during model run

[MostafaGomaa93]

          Please avoid adding `disp` messages to the main loop of the model. Doing so will increase the size of the command output sometimes to GB, especially when processing long time series for multiple locations on HPC, and can cause issues when running the model in parallel. If you need to capture this information, it should be logged to a separate file with a specific filename. or you can write a test script under directory `tests`.

Hi @SarahAlidoost. I would appreciate your suggestion for another way to track the simulation time while the model is running

[SarahAlidoost]

A log file can be created as:

logFid = fopen(fullfile(OutputPath, 'YourLogFile.txt'), 'a');   % this before the main loop
fprintf(logFid, ...);  % this should be in the main loop to store e.g. KT
fclose(logFid);  % this after the main loop

You can also use diary which is available in both matlab and octave, but I have not tried it.

Hi @MostafaGomaa93, I used diary to create a log file in Matlab. It may be helpful for you.
You can add this code

diary([Output_dir,'log.txt'])

before this line, here

STEMMUS_SCOPE/src/STEMMUS_SCOPE.m

Line 375 in dd4764b

while KT < endTime

and add diary off at the end of SEMMUS-SCOPE.m.
A log.txt file will be created, and all the output in maltab command line will be saved in this file.
