What do you mean with that?

To explain what I meant. I knew that that in the end this was a microbenchmark. It can certainly give you some clue about a language, but it doesn't tell you the whole picture. In the end it tells you how good a language is (or can be) at loops and floating point math. That's what I meant. I hope that makes it clearer.

Thanks for the links - the benchmarks game is a great resource and has been around for a long time.

That said, I'm not sure what "do better" means here. This is an open source project I maintain in my spare time. If you see room for improvement, PRs are always welcome. That's how open source works - if something is useful to you and you want it improved, contribute.

The project exists because some people find it useful. If it's not for you, that's fine too.

And if not useful perhaps entertaining.
