[Coco] Speed question

[Becker, Gary]

I am going to try this. I have not done much real programming under NitrOS-9, and this will give me something to try. Thanks again.

Just to be different, I used Basic09 to do that. Here's my source:

DIM A:REAL
D$=DATE$
FOR A=1 TO 10000.
PRINT A
NEXT A
PRINT D$
PRINT DATE$
END

This took 2 minutes 38 seconds on my 1MB Coco3 running NitrOS9 V030206. With
Basic09 running in interpreted mode (I.e. not PACKED). NitrOS9 of course,
runds in high speed mode.
