Back on my game of trying to make my toy programming language go fast. Not gonna lie, Ruby gives it a run for the money though.

These numbers look great, 10m calls ? What does this number mean ?

10million repeated iterations during the benchmark script, kinda arbitrary benchmarks at the moment, only been kicking the tires on the language for a few months. Eventually real-world benchmarks will be more telling I hope.

Okay sounds interesting, so you're training on a language's , is it verification or translation script ? Or just summarising in different languages?

More or less my toy language feels super similar to Ruby, but if Swift, Ruby and Rust had a baby. Then when I benchmark it against ruby scripts they're basically my language minus types, as Ruby and my language look mostly the same when you remove types. There's a bit more to it but yeah
