in thread Why is this code so much slower than the same algorithm in C?

Can you type that in under 0.5 s? If so, then the my is a win. And in the thread you previously discussed having talked about it in chatter and corrected 2 mistakes. I took that as a sing that you did some analysis.

I don't remember the second one-liner. It is obviously faster, but doesn't fit with the theme of trying to micro-optimize the loop.
