welcome

Hi. Welcome to RC, but could you always add a summary of your edits before you submit them.

On RC we tend not to add timings to entries. They tend to be hard to compare or reproduce by others. Were we do allow timings it is usually as a general comparison of two implementations in the same language on the same machine where there are differences that can be rounded to say 10x, 100x or 100x speedups etc.

Thanks again for contributing. --Paddy3118 (talk) 19:55, 7 June 2014 (UTC)


totient function

In the Rosetta Code task   totient function,   you added an alternative much faster way of finding the number of primes up to a specified number.

Counting primes wasn't the point of the task.   The counting the primes is a method of validating   if   the   totient function   was coded (programmed) correctly such that it should correctly yield the number of primes up to a specified number (inclusive).     -- Gerard Schildberger (talk) 22:28, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
