LDC is D1 still, mostly :-( And at the moment it uses LLVM 2.6. LLVM 2.7 contains a new optimization that can improve that code some more. > Good to know, thanks (thats actually a great feature for scientists!). In theory D is a bit fit for numerical computations too, but there is lot of work to do still. And some parts of D design will need to be improved to help numerical code performance. >From my extensive tests, if you use it correctly, D1 code compiled with LDC >can be about as efficient as C code compiled with GCC or sometimes a little >more efficient. ------------- Steven Schveighoffer: > In C/C++, the default value for doubles is 0. I think in C and C++ the default value for doubles is "uninitialized" (that is anything). Bye, bearophile
