My result using SmallBASIC

[LordSamwi]

Using the non MS SmallBASIC on my android tablet. My result is probably at the bottom of the list. 1 loop takes 6.9 seconds.

This basic is an interpreter implementation. Does not support procedures. Unless you set them up as multi-line functions of subroutines. Also does not support any variable typing. It is either a long float or a string. So I was not able to setup a bit array. Figured a work around by taking a number and BIT AND'ing a bit mask value to clear the specific bit.

I do have a question, Is there a reason APL is not in the competition?

For a giggle here is a partial list of the languages I have used over the past 40+ years:
6502 machine code; assembler for z80, X86, 6502, ibm370;
APL; BASIC (various dialects); C; Objective C; COBOL; FORTRAN; LOGO; PASCAL; RPG II
Of the 14, half were self taught

Good day and keep the chocolate and caffeine coming

Yes. No one opened a PR to add it. I'd like to add to that, that anybody who might want to do so, still can.

That's generally not how issues (or discussions), work :)
