Runs a computation of the Mandelbrot set in various languages. The variants are designed to be more or less equivalent, printing the output only at the end to reduce the dependency of I/O to a minimum. Thus, only FP comuputation is measured.
To just run the tests for all available languages, call ./runAll.sh (you might need to install some of the programming languages first).
To try a single language, do the following steps:
-
Run
<language>/prepare.sh(if such exists - interpreted languages doesn't require to call a compiler) -
Run
<language>/run.sh
Naturally, you need to install a compiler and runtime environment for each language you want to use. The prepare script calls the compiler with the required parameters, the run script executes the program in the desired language and prints out the elapsed time.
Most of the languages were already installed on my MacBooks or can be installed with HomeBrew:
brew install node deno php perl python go
Java and C# need a cask:
brew install --cask temurin
brew install --cask dotnet
I tested on several MacBook Pros and the output looks like this:
