One list has values between 0 and 4 (integers expressed as reals) and uses less than 500 bytes. Some reals are built-in to ROM (as are some exact integers), and are usually referenced in a list by their 2.5 byte address instead of the actual raw data (which consumes 10.5 bytes). In particular, all integer reals in the range -9..35 can be referenced this way. There's others, too, but that should give you some idea of where the size differences come from. |
