Those graph axes units are... perplexing, to say the least.
So, we need to swap to the logarithmic graphs to get a better picture
I wish more people would know about decibels.
Why struggling using qsort? std::sort from C++ is much better in terms of usability and performance.
> Cost of a Closure in C
C does not have closures. You could simulate closures, but it is neither robust not automatic compared to languages tha truly support them.
C does not currently have closures, the post it looking at their performance properties with an eye for what form closures should be added to the standard.
Lisp solves the performance hit of closures with macros. However, given what macros look like in C, I hope it never amounts to that!
