I want to use my char array with awesome, cool std.algorithm
functions. Since many of this algorithms requires like slicing
etc.. I prefer to create my string with Utf32 chars. But by
default all strings literals are Utf8 for performance.
With my current knowledge I use to!dhar to convert Utf8[](or
char[]) to Utf32[](or dchar[])
dchar[] range = to!dchar(erdem.dup)
How costly is this?
import std.conv;
import std.utf;
import std.datetime;
import std.stdio;
void f0() {
string somestr = some not so long utf8 string forbenchmarking;
dstring str = to!dstring(somestr);
}
void f1() {
string somestr = some not so long utf8 string forbenchmarking;
dstring str = toUTF32(somestr);
}
void main() {
auto r = benchmark!(f0,f1)(1_000_000);
auto f0Result = to!Duration(r[0]);
auto f1Result = to!Duration(r[1]);
writeln(f0 time: ,f0Result);
writeln(f1 time: ,f1Result);
}
/// output ///
f0 time: 2 secs, 281 ms, 933 μs, and 8 hnsecs
f1 time: 600 ms, 979 μs, and 8 hnsecs
Please have the result of the transcode influence the program
output. E.g. Add the first character of the UTF32 string to
some global variable and print it out. At the moment - at
least in theory - you allow the compiler to deduce f0/f1 as
pure, return-nothing functions and you will benchmark anything
from your written code to an empty loop. I'm talking out of
experience here:
