Hello I'm confused with the benchmark by Edward. The XOR code seems to be 3 times faster than the 'mine' using the following benchmark (shouldn't benchmark code always be published?)
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; my $s1 = 'AAAAA'; my $s2 = 'ATCAA'; for (my $i=0;$i<600000;$i++){ #choose one of the two methods #hd($s1,$s2); # real 0m1.401s hd2($s1,$s2); # real 0m0.405s } sub hd{ my ($k,$l) = @_; my $len = length ($k); my $num_mismatch = 0; for (my $i=0; $i<$len; $i++) { ++$num_mismatch if substr($k, $i, 1) ne substr($l, $i, 1); } return $num_mismatch; } sub hd2 { return ($_[0] ^ $_[1]) =~ tr/\001-\255//; }

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
