#122621 - Table error
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Christoph Franck said:

Algorithm                        tmin    tavg    tmax   (in us)
square root algo, optimized       161     176     191
brute force                       244     246     249
table based approximation           6     363     399
square root algo, unoptimized    1058    1077    1092


Is there an error in the table based figures - the average seems wrong to me.

   10 lines PLUS a whole bunch of 'lines'            01/01/70 00:00      
      I forgot to mention ...            01/01/70 00:00      
         sounds reasonable            01/01/70 00:00      
            I'll optimize it tomorrow.            01/01/70 00:00      
               haven't heard of that one            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Do it using the RLC instruction.            01/01/70 00:00      
               Optimized results:            01/01/70 00:00      
                  how does the lookup table approach time            01/01/70 00:00

                           No error.            01/01/70 00:00      
                           So how did you calculate/measure the average?            01/01/70 00:00      
                              Right below the table:            01/01/70 00:00      
   I do the same thing            01/01/70 00:00      
      Lookup table will win hands down            01/01/70 00:00      
         For floats, yes. For long ints ... not so sure.            01/01/70 00:00      
   one more thing            01/01/70 00:00      
   if the precision is not 'critical'            01/01/70 00:00      
      Another source            01/01/70 00:00      
         What about a Hardware Solution?            01/01/70 00:00
