in reply to Silly question about function args

This type of micro-optimisation does not often bear fruit when considered within the wider scope of development. Some interesting reading on this topic includes:

 

perl -le 'print+unpack("N",pack("B32","00000000000000000000001000101110"))'

    Dunno. This one seemed a reasonable, if admittadly silly question. Their code is running, and they want to make it faster. That doesnt strike me as premature optimization. I agree though that they will need to consider much more serious measures than this, so the micro-optimization point makes sense.
