Reliability is more important than speed, and if you’re reduced to using those hacks for speed-gains your program needs help. Remember Y2K bugs! I think the reason for dropping centuries from dates was not to gain speed, but to save two bytes. In the 70's of previous millennium, two bytes of storage would cost a lot more than today, and also space on punch cards was limited. |
