compiler-explorer VS RegExr

At least on android arm64, looks like a `dmb ishst` is emitted after the constructor, which allows future loads to not need an explicit barrier. Removing `final` from the field causes that barrier to not be emitted.

You said You won't get "extreme performance" from C++ because it is buried under the weight of decades of compatibility hacks.

Now your whole comment is about vector behavior. You haven't talked about what 'decades of compatibility hacks' are holding back performance. Whatever behavior you want from a vector is not a language limitation.

You could write your own vector and be done with it, although I'm still not sure what you mean, since once you reserve capacity a vector still doubles capacity when you overrun it. The reason this is never a performance obstacle is that if you're going to use more memory anyway, you reserve more up front. This is what any normal programmer does and they move on.

I've never used ISPC. It's somewhat interesting although since it's Intel focused of course it's not actually portable.

I guess now the goal posts are shifting. First it was that "C++ as a language has performance limitations" now it's "rust has a vector that has a function I want and also I want SIMD stuff that doesn't exist. It does exist? not like that!"

Try to stay on track. You said there were "decades of compatibility hacks" holding back C++ performance then you went down a rabbit hole that has nothing to do with supporting that.

C++ Insights is available online at https://cppinsights.io/

It is also available at a touch of a button within the most excellent https://godbolt.org/

along side the button that takes your code sample to https://quick-bench.com/

Those sites and https://cppreference.com/ are what I'm using constantly while coding.

I recently discovered https://whitebox.systems/ It's a local app with a $69 one-time charge. And, it only really works with "C With Classes" style functions. But, it looks promising as another productivity boost.

Compiler Explorer by Matt Godbolt [Godbolt] can help better understand what code a compiler generates under different circumstances.

The official CPU architecture manuals from CPU vendors are surprisingly readable and information-rich. I only read the fragments that I need or that I am interested in and move on. Here is the Intel’s one [Intel]. I use the Combined Volume Set, which is a huge PDF comprising all the ten volumes. It is easier to search in when it’s all in one file. I can open several copies on different pages to make navigation easier.

Intel also has a whole optimization reference manual [Intel] (scroll down, it’s all on the same page). The manual helps understand what exactly the CPU is doing.

Personally, I believe in automated benchmarks that measure end-to-end what is actually important and notify you when a change impacts performance for the worse.

Let's compile it with https://godbolt.org/, turn on some optimisations and inspect the IR (-O2 -emit-llvm). Copying out the part that corresponds to the while loop:

resources were extra useful when building deeper intuitions about GPU performance for ML models at work and in graduate school.

- CMU's "Deep Learning Systems" Course is hosted online and has YouTube lectures online. While not generally relevant to software performance, it is especially useful for engineers interested in building strong fundamentals that will serve them well when taking ML models into production environments: https://dlsyscourse.org/

- Compiler Explorer is a tool that allows you easily input some code in and check how the assembly output maps to the source. I think this is exceptionally useful for beginner/intermediate programmers who are familiar with one compiled high-level language and have not been exposed to reading lots of assembly. It is also great for testing how different compiler flags affect assembly output. Many people used to coding in C and C++ probably know about this, but I still run into people who haven't so I share it whenever performance comes up: https://godbolt.org/

To really understand what's going on here we can look at the compiled assembly code. I'm working on a Mac and can do this using the objdump tool. Compiler Explorer is also a handy tool but doesn't seem to support Arm assembly which is what Rust will use when compiling on Apple Silicon.

Play around with it in godbolt if you're really curious: https://godbolt.org/

When thinking about how I might compare an arrangement to the contiguous group of damaged springs, I used regexr.com to experiment with very specific regexs that used the numbers.

There are plenty of online regex tools to test and experiment with regex patterns. Some popular ones include RegExr, RegEx101, and RegexPlanet.

Using regexr.com it at least appears to work as expected.

If you are going to use RE's, use something like https://regexr.com/ to double check that they're doing what you want. I was suspicious of your 'cols = re.findall(r'\d+ .....', i)' line, and indeed it does miss some columns. You should rethink your column detection, and either not use REs or learn how to use capture groups and \w. There would then be no reason to use yet another RE in your column iterator to extract the numbers which you've already detected.

First time posting here, let me know if I need to edit post to conform to any rules. My issue is that I'm trying to match regex pattern to separate out the number of cubes drawn and its color but my Matcher object seems to not be returning any matches so it's throwing a no match found exception when I try to call digitMatcher.group(). I have tested my regex pattern on sites like regexr and it seems to pass there but it's not working for some reason here. I use the same type of regex on day one and it work there so I'm not sure where my regex pattern is failing here. I'm talking about specifically in my isGameValid() method where I create a matcher base on a pattern I made above. Through debugging I know that I separated the string color pairing correctly and that my Matcher object has the correct regex pattern, it's just not matching for some reason. Any help would be appreciated. Code below:

Regexr has been an invaluable tool as a beginner.

RegExr simplifies working with regular expressions. This online tool provides a visual interface for building and testing regex patterns in real-time, making regex less intimidating.

Ho did you arrive at the regex? I usually use a website to , such as https://regex101.com/, https://regexr.com/, https://regex-generator.olafneumann.org/ in combination of each other, as some explain better than the other.

I pulled this into regexr.com and it yielded the same results except it removed :41:
