foreach itself has some performance issues as it requires object creation.
I need to eke every clock cycle I can out of this routine.
Normally I only optimize when i can make algorithmic improvements, but my algo is already tight for what it does.
Sometimes even in the days of powerful computers, we still need to bit twiddle every once in awhile. Lexer routines are a good example of where.

The goal of this is to produce a small program to solve a physical problem with numerical data. An electron of
charge −e and mass me is moving at a speed v(t = 0) = vex in the plane Oxy between the two plates of a capacitor.
The field is given by E= Eey. The only force is Lorentz F=qE. Plot the trajectory of this electron.
Python code: plot the trajectory of this electron; use matplotlib.pyplot to plot and scipy.integrate.ode
to solve the problem.

Wrong place to post this: as it says in red at the top of the page you need to be here: Ask a question[^]
But ... we aren't here to do your homework anyway. We are more than willing to help those that are stuck: but that doesn't mean that we are here to do it all for you! We can't do all the work, you are either getting paid for this, or it's part of your grades and it wouldn't be at all fair for us to do it all for you.
So we need you to do the work, and we will help you when you get stuck. That doesn't mean we will give you a step by step solution you can hand in!
Start by explaining where you are at the moment, and what the next step in the process is. Then tell us what you have tried to get that next step working, and what happened when you did.
So if you do post this in the right place, you'll need to explain all of that, or you won't get help - we do not do your homework for you.

I didn't understand scipy part, how can I use it? And what for?
|
|
|
|

Easy.
SciPy is a free and open-source Python library used for scientific computing and technical computing. SciPy contains modules for optimization, linear algebra, integration, interpolation, special functions, FFT, signal and image processing, ODE solvers and other tasks common in science and engineering. (copied from wikipedia.org)
The solution to your problem might need to use one of the models in SciPy.

I suspect that you will find your tutor covered that library in your last lecture - they normally do just before setting homework requiring it ...

tutors, smuters ...I've got CodeProject (or that other one).
after many otherwise intelligent sounding suggestions that achieved nothing the nice folks at Technet said the only solution was to low level format my hard disk then reinstall my signature. Sadly, this still didn't fix the issue!

I got my Pike Virtual Machine for running regexs coded and it's a fun little widget;
L0000: split L0001, L0008, L0020, L0024
L0001: save 0
L0002: set "A".."Z", "_", "a".."z"
L0003: split L0004, L0006
L0004: set "0".."9", "A".."Z", "_", "a".."z"
L0005: jmp L0003
L0006: save 1
L0007: match 0
L0008: save 0
L0009: split L0010, L0012
L0010: char "0"
L0011: jmp L0018
L0012: split L0013, L0014
L0013: char "-"
L0014: set "1".."9"
L0015: split L0016, L0018
L0016: set "0".."9"
L0017: jmp L0015
L0018: save 1
L0019: match 1
L0020: save 0
L0021: set "\t", "\n", "\v", "\f", "\r", " "
L0022: save 1
L0023: match 2
L0024: save 0
L0025: any
L0026: save 1
L0027: match -1
That lexes a regex with an id (match 0), integer (match 1) or whitespace (match 2)
My little compiler generated that when I called this:
int[][] prog = Regex.CompileLexer(
@"[A-Z_a-z][A-Z_a-z0-9]*",
@"0|(\-?[1-9][0-9]*)",
@"[ \t\r\n\v\f]"
);
The instructions are encoded as an array of ints per, while the overarching instruction stream is int[][]. This way i can pass it around without requiring dependencies, and I can implement the VM/interpreter in an outside library without requiring a reference to an Instruction class or something.
The thing that's cool about this machine is it's cooperatively threaded. I'm tickled about that. Split jumps to multiple locations "at the same time." so it's concurrent. In reality this was a neat trick wherein i interleave the execution of each thread so i don't have to backtrack over the input.
It's the coolest project I've made this year, and the article is already getting underrated at codeproject. 
I think people ph33r regex.
Still, it's so much fun.

Yeah, that really surprised me, as I thought what you're doing here is really the coolest thing since sliced bread. Oh well, go figure.

Thanks. I really think it's the regex. I think some people just hate it.

Jonathan Allen (InfoQ) writing on tiered compilation in .NET 3.0:Quote: the runtime initially produces quick to compile but non optimal JIT code as needed and then executes it. Then in the background the runtime analyzes the context and IL code to determine if a more optimal JIT solution can be achieved. If so, it recompiles the IL code and swaps out the slow JIT path with the optimal JIT path. I'm sure there's some additional complexity in how that's achieved, but that's the basic idea. For static class initializers and static readonly field initializers, the runtime will produce first pass code that takes the init lock. That protects against the initializers ever running twice. That locking also has a runtime performance penalty. So, once the initializer runs once, the optimizer will simply produce new optimized accessor code paths that don't do any locking anymore!
[^].
I find Allen's in-depth coverage of C# and .NET developments, future features, etc., the most useful of any current source ... okay, okay ... Kent Sharkey, Scott Hanselman, Mads Torgensen, and the Nabobs and Hierophants of CodeProject are equally stellar phenomena

This makes me wonder what sort of jit magic happens with synchronizing awaitable methods.

but this comment was in response to something some other c# dev team/section were adding,
... JA basically pointing out what they had proposed was superfluous.
shows the c# dev teams don't always communicate / are often disjointed. Too many cooks....
I'm not against introduction of new features as long as older code is not affected (still compiles/tests as before) - good thing is so far c# dev have managed at least that.
Where it does become an issue though are kiddies: that as soon as new features are released feel the need to use those new features everywhere including public github sources they can modify.
- not fun at a customer site maintaining something that uses those (and the local vs/c# can/may not be updated - licence, time...)
An example: within days of the nameof() operator being introduced [even then only in beta] some kiddie decided to use/add it in every single method in a github library I was using. Nothing else was modified "updated", silly kiddie just decided to "contribute" by using/adding nameof() everywhere he could - even where it made no sense (or way less sense than the original exception messages that he removed). - WTF??
... luckily I did have an older backed up version. (and very soon after the original owner rolled it back specifically to undo that stupidity.)
yeah OK, typically if/when I use entire github repos I'll download full source and purposely disconnect it - sometimes though get caught when maintaining / rebuilding [others'] older apps.

Sorry to hear about your "code kid" experience ... haven't met one of those myself
One of the things I most like about Allen's writing is the sharp-minded criticisms he renders of both released, and proposed, new C# features.
Null checks are a kind of dismal swamp we're stuck in: imho, no clean way out. My preference would be use of Attributes. Too bad Code Contracts never became useful.
cheers, Bill

"Nameof" replaces a lot of "magic words" like property names (in UI bindings), that break when class property names are changed.

I go to my dollar account and click "Log in".
Up pops the login screen, covered with a "shield" and a "optional cookies" accept / decline. There is a "More info on the cookies", so I click that.
And I get the info. COVERED. WITH. THE. SHIELD. AND. ACCEPT. DECLINE. BUTTONS.

That's even worse than what happens when I logout from my insurance company's website! I get a confirmation screen that reads:
Are you sure you want to logout?
[Quit] [Cancel]

Change the zoom on the page to move the info into view - the shield should remain centered.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Right click, "Inspect", "Delete element" works better! :laugh.
There is also "Block element" on uBlock ... don't tempt me ...
