+    Create a collection of benchmarks to evaluate the complexity of a function.
+
+    INPUT:
+
+    - ``data_generator`` -- a function taking a size argument, and
+      generating some data of this size at random
+    - ``function`` -- a function taking data generated by ``data_generator`` as input
+    - ``sizes`` -- a collection of sizes
+
+    EXAMPLES:
+
+    We want to evaluate the practical complexity of Python's sorting
+    algorithms according to the size of the list. First we write a
+    function to generate a random list of a give size::
+
+        >>> from random import randint
+        >>> def random_list(n):
+        ...     return [randint(0, n) for i in range(n)]
+
+    Then we create the collection of benchmarks::
+
+        >>> from bleachermark import *
+        >>> BB = SimpleBleachermark(random_list, sorted, sizes=[1,2,4,8])
+
+    We run the benchmark::
+
+        >>> BB.run()
+
+    The benchmark can be interrupted anytime with ^C, and resumed
+    later on by calling ``run`` again.
+
+    Now we can look at the timings::
+
+        >>> BB.timings()                        # random
+        {1: [6.000000000061512e-06, ... 5.000000000032756e-06],
+         2: [4.000000000004e-06, ... 2.9999999999752447e-06],

+         8: [5.000000000032756e-06, ... 5.000000000032756e-06]}
+
+    and do some simple statistics on them::
+
+        >>> BB.averages()                       # random
+        {1: 4.670000000006613e-06,
