title: fps - how to divide count by time function to determine fps
body: <p>I have a counter working that counts every frame. what I want to do is divide this by time to determine the FPS of my program. But I'm not sure how to perform operations on timing functions within python.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried initializing time as</p>
  
  <pre><code>fps_time = time.time 
  fps_time = float(time.time)
  fps_time = np.float(time.time)
  fps_time = time()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then for calculating the fps,</p>
  
  <pre><code>FPS = (counter / fps_time)
  FPS = float(counter / fps_time)
  FPS = float(counter (fps_time))
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But errors I'm getting are object is not callable or unsupported operand for /: 'int' and 'buildin functions'</p>
  
  <p>thanks in advance for the help! </p>
