Do you even Refactor? 001

Code refactoring is crucial but often overlooked. It can improve the design and performance of existing code.

The Python code below takes about 12 seconds to execute. Refactor the getData function to make it run in less than 1 second. Post your answer in the comments.

import time
def getData():
  arr = []
  for i in range(1000*1000*100):
    arr.append(5)
  return arr

def timed(func):
  def run():
    Tstart = time.time()
    func()  
    Tend = time.time()
    Tdt = round(Tend - Tstart, 2)
    print(Tdt, 'seconds')
  return run
@timed
def main():
  print(len(getData()))
main()
