// Need to modify the wrapper function to work with a specified timeout (for example, 1 second). // If the "long" function completes within this time - great, return the result. // If not - return an error. The result of the operation in this case does not matter. // // Additionally, measure how long this function took to execute (just log it). // The signature of the wrapper function can be changed.

Below is an example of a wrapper function in Go that runs a given function with a 1-second timeout, measures execution time, and returns an error if the time is exceeded:

package main

import (
    "errors"
    "log"
    "time"
)

// TimeoutWrapper runs the function fn with a timeout
func TimeoutWrapper(fn func() (interface{}, error), timeout time.Duration) (interface{}, error) {
    start := time.Now()
    resultChan := make(chan interface{})
    errChan := make(chan error)

    go func() {
        res, err := fn()
        if err != nil {
            errChan <- err
            return
        }
        resultChan <- res
    }()

    select {
    case res := <-resultChan:
        elapsed := time.Since(start)
        log.Printf("Function completed in %v", elapsed)
        return res, nil
    case err := <-errChan:
        elapsed := time.Since(start)
        log.Printf("Function errored in %v", elapsed)
        return nil, err
    case <-time.After(timeout):
        elapsed := time.Since(start)
        log.Printf("Function timed out after %v", elapsed)
        return nil, errors.New("function timed out")
    }
}

// Example of a "long" function
func longFunc() (interface{}, error) {
    time.Sleep(2 * time.Second) // simulate long work
    return "done", nil
}

func main() {
    res, err := TimeoutWrapper(longFunc, 1*time.Second)
    if err != nil {
        log.Println("Error:", err)
    } else {
        log.Println("Result:", res)
    }
}

In this example, the TimeoutWrapper function runs the passed function in a goroutine, waits for its result or error, or a timeout. The execution time is logged in any case.
