new Casio’s fx-CG50

[Chasfield]

More benchmarking:

I reformatted the HP39GII code for the 100x60 pixel field Mandelbrot set so that it would run on the HP Prime.

Code:


EXPORT Mand()
BEGIN
RECT();       
FOR X FROM 1 TO 100 DO 
 FOR Y FROM 1 TO 60 DO
   A:=(X-50)/30; 
   B:=(Y-30)/30;
   C:=A;      
   D:=B; 
   N:=0;    
   S:=1;  
   REPEAT
     N:=N+1;           
     G:=A*A-B*B+C;      
     B:=2*A*B+D;       
     A:=G;              
     If A*A+B*B > 4 THEN 
     S:=0;     
     END;
  UNTIL (N = 20 OR S=0); 
  If S=1 THEN
  PIXON_P(X,Y) 
  END;
 END;
END;
TEXTOUT_P("DONE",0,80);  
FREEZE;  
END;

Here is the updated benchmark table:

HP Prime, 13 seconds
HP39GII, 44 seconds
fx-CG50 C.Basic for CG Alpha, 30 seconds
fx-CG50 stock Casio Basic , 608 seconds
fx-9860G stock Casio Basic, 643 seconds

The Prime's much faster system clock wins the day.
