Running speed compare between purebasic and powerbasic

[goldmate]

purebasic code[4.30]:
timer.f=ElapsedMilliseconds()
k.l
For i.l=1 To 100000
For j.l=1 To 100000
k=i+j
Next j
Next i
MessageRequester(StrF(ElapsedMilliseconds()-timer),"")
End

purebasic cost 30.9 seconds
powerbasic cost 11.3 seconds with likely code

My computer:Intel duo core E4500
System:Microsoft XP(SP2)

You did remember to use "DisableDebugger" at the head of your PureBasic
source, right? Because that's how executables are built with PureBasic.
And you do know that ElapsedMilliseconds() doesn't return a float?
So, please post your results with this corrected PureBasic code:

Code: Select all

DisableDebugger
timer.l=ElapsedMilliseconds()
k.l
For i.l=1 To 100000
For j.l=1 To 100000
k=i+j
Next j
Next i
MessageRequester(Str(ElapsedMilliseconds()-timer),"")

That'll only get you half way there. You have to turn it off entirely: http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtop ... 209#242209

Oh, and this test is nonsense anyway. If you want to do a real comparison then test with a code/algorithm that actually solves a real world problem. Measuring how fast a useless empty loop will run tells you nothing.

debug mode is disable already

It is only a sample,not a comprehensive compare.
I like purebasic more than powerbasic.

well, speed comparsion this way are useless(as freak says).
before any flame occurs, i move and close this topic.
Nothing personal.
