[09:29] Join: yoR joined #corewars [10:10] Has anyone benchmarked Paul's new qscan? [10:10] I'm unable to do it right now at work, but I'm curious.. [10:12] What's the current benchmark, btw. [10:35] I don't know if there is a current benchmark... [10:35] If I'm trying to determine how good a qscan is I'll test it against the most populair qscans.. [10:36] If you want to test (whole) warriors you should ask Mizcu, I think he made a new benchmark recently [10:37] Else you can use WilFiz, its probably the most recent public benchmark (http://www.corewar.info/bench.htm [10:38] Thanks :) [10:39] Think i've got that stashed somewhere, actually. [10:57] WilMiz(?) is still in draft [10:58] fsh94nop ver 0.3 is the newest, but wilfiz will do fine [10:58] if you dont mind getting depressing results, that is [10:58] Kinda used to those by now ;) [11:01] Roy, check the Fluffy's qscan-article and make comparement on that basis [11:16] Yeah, thats what I was planning to do [11:17] But I'm at work now, so not able to do it, so I wondered if somebody had checked it [11:17] well, you know i dont dig qscans [11:18] I like the challenge of designing a new one, lots of math needed to make them smaller/better/faster [11:19] And the fact most warriors use a copied one... well, its a necessaty, and kind of a compliment to the original creator [13:51] hrm. [13:55] hi bvowk [13:55] that DVD refuses to open to me, didja give accidentally a wrong one, or is it formatted in non-CDFS? [13:56] no, it should be the right onw.. [13:57] it might be mac'ish tho.. [13:58] 'file system: RAW' [13:58] no label loaded, only empty inside [13:58] its not even ignored, so its probably in some silly format [13:58] if its in crapintosh then ill need a driver/wrapper [14:47] Join: Metcalf joined #corewars [14:47] Hi [14:52] Join: OoS joined #corewars [14:53] MSG: Ping timeout: 245 seconds [15:03] Hi JM [15:04] How are you today? [15:07] Hi Roy [15:07] Okay thanks, are you? [15:08] I've been implementing Stooge sort in redcode [15:08] But it doesn't work [15:08] I'm pretty sure my code works properly, so the fault must be with the algorithm!

[16:11] Just saved 2 million cycles by optimizing out a jmp! [16:11] I did a few tests on paper [16:20] MSG: Ping timeout: 245 seconds [16:26] Join: OoS joined #corewars [16:37] MSG: Quit: Changing server [16:51] Part: yoR left #corewars [16:55] Join: Pelend joined #corewars [16:59] MSG: Ping timeout: 245 seconds [17:03] Join: OoS joined #corewars [17:04] Stooge sort works now, there was a stupid bug (two values stored the wrong way round on stack) [17:39] MSG: Ping timeout: 245 seconds [17:39] Join: OoS joined #corewars [18:22] MSG: Ping timeout: 245 seconds [18:23] Join: OoS joined #corewars [18:31] MSG: Ping timeout: 245 seconds [18:32] Join: OoS joined #corewars [18:57] MSG: Ping timeout: 245 seconds [19:24] Join: OoS joined #corewars [19:31] MSG: Ping timeout: 245 seconds [22:08] Join: fiveop joined #corewars
