How can I programmatically create a Profile 2 profile?

Question

I am taking a look in the Profile 2 API documentation: http://api.drupalhelp.net/api/profile2/function

I guess profile_create() or profile2_save() are what I need. But I have read somewhere profile_create() is deprecated.

Any example for how to create a Profile 2 profile programmatically?

Yes profile_create() is deprecated. You should use profile2_create() instead.

See the profile2.module file:

/**
 * Deprecated. Use profile2_create().
 */
function profile_create(array $values) {
  return new Profile($values);
}
