Question

Write a Program(code) in Python that performs a large number of floating-point operations and an equal number of integer operations and compares the time required. Please attach an output.

Answer 1

import time

import decimal

# starting time

start = time.time()

# program body starts

start_int=1

stop_int=10000000

step_int=3

def int_range(start_int, stop_int, step_int):

  while start_int < stop_int:

      yield int(start_int)

      start_int +=step_int

time.sleep(1)

# end time

end = time.time()

# total time taken

print(f"Runtime of 10000000 integer operation is {end - start}ms")

start = time.time()

# program body starts

start_float=1.0

stop_float=10000000.0

step_float=3.0

def float_range(start_float, stop_float, step_float):

  while start_float < stop_float:

      yield float(start_float)

      start_float += decimal.Decimal(step_float)

time.sleep(1)

# end time

end = time.time()

# total time taken

print(f"Runtime of 10000000 floating operation is  {end - start}ms")
