speedtest.Speedtest() code example

Example 1: speedtest

Test Speed VERY GOOD

Example 2: speedtest

#pip3 install speedtest-cli
import speedtest

#function that gets the download speed in mega bytes per second
def get_final_speed():
    rawspeed = speedtest.Speedtest().download()
    roundedspeed = round(rawspeed)
    finalspeed = roundedspeed / 1e+6
    return finalspeed

#function that loops and calls on the above function
def looped_av(y):
    finalspeeds = 0
    for i in range(y):
        x = get_final_speed()
        print(f'{i+1}. {x}mb/s')
    return finalspeeds

#menu loop

        x = get_final_speed()
        print(f'done, your download speed is {x}mb/s')

    elif repeat == '3':

        times_through = int(input('how many times do you want the test to run?\n>>>'))
        #iterates and finds the average download speed
        x = looped_av(times_through)

    else:
