I've had my locks drilled in the middle of the night in NYC, and 600+ is absurd. I dont know what world your from where 600 is the norm.

Yeah my tests were against java, but I've seen the same kind of performance using C#.

Call me cheap, but once i heard $85 I would have just went back to work and found my keys.

Statement 1 should be faster, but i doubt you will see any noticeable difference. I'd be hesitant about having a table with many property fields for a single item. If your concern is speed this table will become a hotspot of your application. You might be better off having an intermediate...

Well that sucks, I'm glad I decided to bypass FSAs this year.

The first statement should be faster.

Regular expressions have their place, but many a times the same result can be produced without using them. Benchmarking the RegEx vs the for loop, the for loop is approximately 5-6 times faster for 1000000 evaluations. So while RegEx is definitely faster to write, if performance is your concern...

haha good one.

You could actually check if the input is in the correct format in a few different ways. 1. Regular Expression 2. a try catch with Integer.parseInt 3. A loop over your input string checking each character The fastest approach would be the loop.

One approach to finding the median would be to store the int values in a sorted array and return the value at the middle position of the array.

Damn late again :(
