Hi,
I'm trying one of Dave Thomas' CodeKanta exercises (binary chop) and
am curious about the benchmarking results, in particular the
rehearsal/final results for chop and chop1. The relationship is
consistent over multiple runs of the benchmark.
I have two questions: 1) why the switch in relative position; and 2)
what might cause the first two 'chops' to show such dramatic drops
between rehearsal/actual runs and the lack of movement for the last
two 'chops'.
Regards,
Steve
