Great.
So now I have to wait until my spacesuit, jetpack, AND Captain America shield are finished!
I knew I should have ordered the Iron Man armour, instead!

That's a new world record, but set in space. So I guess it's a space record or what would you call it?
We need a new word for this. I suggest Galumquodakomalium.

Can you give the etymological reasoning for this word? I hope you can, it's a good word!

Nope, sorry. Those were just random syllables which first came to mind.

The co-passenger satellites comprised of 101 nano satellites,
I suppose if we make them smaller we can launch even more. How about the content of a bag of marbles and really run up the record!
What was left out of the article? Where each of these "placed" in an orbit or dumped like sperm in some sort of cosmic cluster-f*ck?
Devil's in the details and all that.

One satellite, probably the heaviest, was placed in orbit. One minute after, another satellite and a couple of seconds later, one more. Then the whole slew of them.
That is the information in the papers in India.

You gave me a fine laugh with that description.
All I could visualize was a goat leaving a trail of droppings.

I'm pretty bored today (the rest of the week too, I predict).
So I had an idea. Why not come here and ask you guys for the codez, and I'll SIMDify it. Maybe. Not all the codez are created equally, SIMD doesn't apply everywhere. There's something in it for you too: faster codez! Well, maybe. It depends.
C++ with SSE intrinsics or x86 or x64 asm if you prefer (for MASM or YASM, not GAS).
By default with "generic tuning" (whatever that means, it might just be a euphemism for "no tuning") and up to and including SSE4.1, otherwise if you prefer:
- Up to and including AVX
- Up to and including AVX2
- With Ivy tuning
- With Haswell tuning
- With Skylake tuning
"But why no tuning for anything else?" ok I might do it, but I have less experience with most other µarchs. Except Core2 65nm, which isn't on the list because I don't like tuning for it.
What to post/send: the codez, choices from the list above (if any), any information that may be useful (such as how the input is limited (range of values but also alignment), whether converting fp math to 16bit fixed point math is OK, whether a condition is typically true or essentially random, etc), and test cases if you have any.
If this is unexpectedly popular (to be honest I expect fewer than 1 submission) I might not have time to handle all of them.

Oh wow! Yes please!
Here's my code (it's not quite finished yet, but it's ready for QA posts to complete it)
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
std::cout << "hello world!\n";
return 0;
}If you can get that faster (and include the DB, Replication, GUI, and complete BL for my app in Xamarin Forms) that'd be great!
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Sure, here it is:
int main()
{
return 0;
}
Should be faster now, mainly thanks to the brace placement, obviously putting the braces at the start of the line is faster because now the C++ does not have to scan so far into the line to see it.
|
|
|
|
|
But doesn't seem to meet the unit tests any more...

I'll look for possibilities, but it doesn't look too promising for retrofitting SIMD into. Probably great for re-building with SIMD in mind from the start, though.

This engine is the No.1 - beats all the commercials... If you can improve it, that will interest a lot of people...
