I'm still putting the finishing touches on delete, but I did run some tests on add to make sure I'm faster than the Weiss code, which I think a lot of the class is using.
When I add the elements from 1 to 1 million . . .
Weiss Code: 3.6 Billion Application Instructions
My Code: 1.1 Billion Application Insturctions
On add tests in every direction, it appears I'm about 3.5 times faster than the Weiss code all over, which I think is the case for all people who wrote their own code like DVW told us to his way.
Y'all should download the Weiss code, test your code against it, and benchmark it that way. I'm guessing if we're faster than the Weiss code, we're on a good point of the normalization . . . otherwise a C if we're using the Weiss code? Not sure . . .
