Re: Benchmarking sigmoid function between C and D

can you try it with c math functions? instead of std.math, try to use core.stdc.math On Sat, Apr 7, 2018 at 8:53 PM, Arun Chandrasekaran via Digitalmars-d-learn wrote: > What am I doing wrong here that makes the D equivalent 2.5 times slower > than it's C
