In http://www.jsoftware.com/pipermail/chat/2008-January/000869.html the
link http://cgi.cse.unsw.edu.au/~dons/blog is mentioned, at the end of which
I found
Language Time (N=36)
Ruby (1.8.5) 64.26s
Python (2.4) 25.16s
Haskell (GHC 6.8) 0.48s
Parallel Haskell (GHC 6.8) 0.42s
This was for the most 'naive fibonacci algorithm':
fib=: 3 : 0
if. y e. 0 1 do. 1 else. (fib y-1) + fib y-2 end.
)
On my machine I got
ts'fib 35'
213.43542 52736
Is anybody capable of comparing J-figures with (some of) the other languages
(except for parallel Haskell) on one machine?
