| Oneline tests running: | |
| 10 T=MILLIS(1): FOR I=1 TO 10000: A=5: NEXT: PRINT MILLIS(1)-T | |
| Explanation: | |
| In this loop the interpreter processes the following per iteration: | |
| 5 token reads (VARIABLE A, =, NUMBER 5, :, NEXT) | |
| 2 heap searches (for A and I) | |
| 1 assignment | |
| 6+numsize byte reads | |
| As a rough over the thumb estimate 50% of the runtime goes into | |
| the two heap searches and 50% in token and byte read operations. | |
| This may vary a lot. | |

| BASIC can do between 5 and 117 loops per millisecond. The typical | |
| timescale for one loop of 32bit boards is 20 microseconds. | |
| Everything in this range can be done with BASIC. | |
| Integer results (BASICSIMPLE, SHORT NAMES): | |
| UNO R3: 1800 5.5. | |
| LEONARDO: 1574 6.3 (Tinybasic, static vars) | |
| Floating point results (BASICFULL, LONG NAMES, NO NETWORK, 64bit FLOAT): | |
| Arduino GIGA: 85 | |
| ESP8266: 1479 | |
| The GIGA board has a double precision hardware FPU and can do process | |
| the additions and compares of the loop as fast as with 32 bits. | |
