Create a :class:`Timer` instance with the given statement, *setup* code and
*timer* function and run its :meth:`.timeit` method with *number* executions.
+ .. note::
+
+ Because :meth:`.timeit` is executing *stmt*, placing a return statement
+ in *stmt* will prevent :meth:`.timeit` from returning execution time.
+ It will instead return the data specified by your return statement.

.. function:: repeat(stmt='pass', setup='pass', timer=<default timer>, repeat=3, number=1000000)
