Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 270,687 loops for a total of 5,413,740 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000005) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (1.374) milliseconds per 270,687 loops.
- Total difference 27.48 milliseconds for 5,413,740 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (1.9974) milliseconds and Code 2 was (2.1929) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.
Code
The first test, "file()", was:
