I have two function: Let’s say

1. Funtion()
2. Faster\_Function()

their outputs are the same but their order is different, I want to test their speed and accuracy, how can I do this?

I also need features such as writing outputs to a file, drawing graphs.

Note: the outputs are polytopes, and if sorting them by their dimesions, I still get different lists(is there any solution, any sorting algo)

Too many questions and not all related to the title.  
To benchmark functions use [BenchmarkTools.jl](https://juliaci.github.io/BenchmarkTools.jl/stable/) and to time internal sections of functions you can use the masterpiece code: [TimerOutputs.jl](https://github.com/KristofferC/TimerOutputs.jl)

For the other questions, there are many solutions here in Discourse, try them first, if stuck then post some code and you will get better help.
