Re^5: alternatives to if and series of elsif

My bad... I think I misled you a bit. To quote the Benchmark documentation for cmpthese: "This chart is sorted from slowest to fastest, ..." so the higher the number, the faster the code. I don't think the actual number means much of anything, it's the percent difference between the different subs being compared that's important.

You mean `kutsu 15170/s -- -31% -90% -91% -91% + -93% op_cmp2 229681/s 1414% 945% 44% 43% 32% + --` [download] op_cmp2 is faster than kutsu?	[reply] [d/l]

I see. I had the impression the while loop would be the slowest because of the extra computation involved.	[reply]
