Hello Guys Today i will discuss which loop among “for”,”while” and “do-while” is faster?
I am comparing only these 3 loops in this post.
Let’s get started…
I am going to perform this test at 10 billion value for the loops
For loop –
let count = 0;
let start = new Date().getTime();
for(let i = 0; i<10000000000;i++){
count += i
}
let end = new Date().getTime();
console.log((end - start)/1000)
OUTPUT –
I performed it 10 times and got the result in seconds
22.01
14.56
14.49
14.93
15.03
15.10
15.30
15.11
16.34
15.92
While loop –
let count = 0;
let start = new Date().getTime();
let i = 0;
while (i < 10000000000){
count += i;
i++;
}
let end = new Date().getTime();
console.log((end - start)/1000)
OUTPUT –
I performed it 10 times and got the result in seconds
21.20
14.69
14.42
15.64
16.93
15.79
16.40
16.09
19.05
18.27
do-while loop –
let count = 0;
let start = new Date().getTime();
let i = 0;
do{
count += i;
i++
} while (i < 10000000000)
let end = new Date().getTime();
console.log((end - start)/1000)
OUTPUT –
I performed it 10 times and got the result in seconds
22.36
14.83
15.36
14.82
15.48
18.17
22.48
17.08
18.64
18.11
Averages –
- For loop – 15.87
- While loop – 17.14
- Do-while loop – 17.73
From my test results , For loop is slightly better than while and do-while but i am saying this with test results and i can be wrong as well
NOTE – While running the loop first time in every case the time taken is higher compared to other 9 test case, please mention the reason in the comment section if you know that.
