What you are doing wrong is that xxx is never used... So DMD
removes it altogether?
If you add writeln(xxx) after the second loop as well, then
maybe the measurements make more sense?
Ola.
maybe, I thought I put in the writeln(xxx) in there to do that...
yeah, looking at my code it's there, so that is not the problem.
This is the code I had,
import std.datetime;
double xxx = 0;
StopWatch sw;
sw.start();
for(double i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) xxx += sinTab(i);
auto t = sw.peek().msecs;
writeln(t);
sw.stop();
writeln(xxx);
xxx = 0;
sw.reset();
sw.start();
for(double i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) xxx += sin(PI*i);
t = sw.peek().msecs;
writeln(t);
sw.stop();
writeln(xxx);
Either I modified it later or deleted one of those lines or the
editor screwed up when I pasted it... I don't recall touching the
code afterwards.
Either way, sin it's still twice as fast. Also, in the code the
sinTab version is missing the writeln so it would have been
faster.. so it is not being optimized out.
