This I like!

This I don't like.
- nheer 10mo agoThank you for your comment. > > a silly little experiment > This I don't like. What do you mean with that? To explain what I meant. I knew that that in the end this was a microbenchmark. It can certainly give you some clue about a language, but it doesn't tell you the whole picture. In the end it tells you how good a language is (or can be) at loops and floating point math. That's what I meant. I hope that makes it clearer.

Take kostya or hanabi1224 or attractivechaos or … as your starting point and do better. https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/sometimes-people-just-make-up-stuff.html#maintenance-burden https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/...
- nheer 10mo agoThanks for the links - the benchmarks game is a great resource and has been around for a long time. That said, I'm not sure what "do better" means here. This is an open source project I maintain in my spare time. If you see room for improvement, PRs are always welcome. That's how open source works - if something is useful to you and you want it improved, contribute. The project exists because some people find it useful. If it's not for you, that's fine too.
