+## Running Benchmarks
+
+```sh
+npm run bench
+```
+
+With around 15 benchmarks, running takes approximately 2 minutes.
+
+Example output:
+
+```sh
+$ npm run bench
+
+> [email protected] bench /Users/shreyasminocha/dev/forks/JSVerbalExpressions
+> node benchmark/run.js
+

+
+The uncertainty column is a measure of how accurate the time in the `Time` column is.
