Adding new functions to PrimitiveArray? in an attempt to improve performance.

new(n,x:NNI->S)
create new array of size n with values from x(i),i=0..n-1
fill!(n,x:NNI->S)
set the elements of array with values from x(i),i=0..n-1

This is the code for Axiom's PrimitiveArray? domain with two small changes for options to call new and fill! with an initialization function rather than just a constant.

How long does this take?

First, it seems to make a big difference whether the initialization is done by an anonymous function or by a named function since the latter can be compiled and called with very little overhead. In other words using:

  init1(x:Integer):Integer == random(100)-random(100)

is much better than this:

axiom
)time on
l0:PRIMARR(INT):=new(100000,0); map!(x+->random(100)-random(100),l0);
Type: PrimitiveArray? Integer
axiom
Time: 0.01 (IN) + 1.98 (EV) + 1.04 (GC) = 3.03 sec

Old way using a compiled initialization function with the map! function:

axiom
init1(x:Integer):Integer == random(100)-random(100)
Function declaration init1 : Integer -> Integer has been added to workspace.
Type: Void
axiom
Time: 0 sec l1:PRIMARR(INT):=new(100000,0); map!(init1,l1);
axiom
Compiling function init1 with type Integer -> Integer
Type: PrimitiveArray? Integer
axiom
Time: 0.14 (EV) + 0.07 (GC) = 0.21 sec

New way with the call to the initialization function builtin to the new function:

axiom
init2(x:NNI):Integer == random(100)-random(100)
Function declaration init2 : NonNegativeInteger -> Integer has been added to workspace.
Type: Void
axiom
Time: 0 sec l2:XPRIMARR(INT):=new(100000,init2);
axiom
Compiling function init2 with type NonNegativeInteger -> Integer
Type: XPrimitiveArray? Integer
axiom
Time: 0.12 (EV) + 0.01 (OT) + 0.08 (GC) = 0.21 sec

Show the first few entries
