+ | ==== Tip #9: Know the optimizer ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | **XC=BASIC** features a built-in optimizer that replaces commonly used program sequences with faster opcode sequences. To make good use of the optimizer, bear in mind the following program structures that can be optimized: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Value assignment of bytes and integers | ||
+ | * Addition of bytes and integers | ||
+ | * Subtraction of bytes and integers | ||
+ | * Comparison of bytes, e. g. '' | ||
+ | * '' | ||
+ | * Array access of byte type arrays with byte type index | ||
+ | * Bitwise operators on bytes | ||
+ | * POKE and PEEK (they' | ||
+ | |||
+ | The following are not optimized at all: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Operations on floating point types | ||
+ | * I/O commands like '' | ||
+ | * Convenience commands like '' |
