I downloaded the reference NIM implementation and got the

For a person not familiar with nim, what's the fastest way to
fix that?
import algorithm
thats all but then it spits out
lib/nim/pure/algorithm.nim(144, 11) Error: interpretation
requires too many iterations
My mistake. I updated the file and forgot to include the 'import
algorithm' directive. The file is now fixed to include it.
Download the corrected version or patch your file accordingly.
As stated in the file intro **YOU MUST DO THIS** to get it to
compile with current Nim (they were supposed to fix this in this
version 0.19.0 but didn't).
To compile for nim versions <= 0.19.0 do following:
1) in file: ~/nim-0.19.0/compiler/vmdef.nim
2) set variable: MaxLoopIterations* = 1_000_000_000 (1 Billion
or >)
3) then rebuild sysem: ./koch boot -d:release
If you are using 'choosenim' to install Nim (highly advisable)
the full path is:
~/.choosenim/toolchains/nim-0.19.0/compiler/vmdef.nim
I'll post performance results from my laptop to give reference
times to compare against.
