📄 280% (2.80x) speedup for
GeneticAlgorithm.mutationinGeneticAlgorithm.py⏱️ Runtime :
847 milliseconds→223 milliseconds(best of23runs)📝 Explanation and details
To optimize this code for better performance, we can reduce the number of calls to the
rand()function and avoid repeatedly accessing the length of the bitstring in each iteration. One approach to do this is to generate all the random values at once and to transform the bitstring using vectorized operations, which are typically faster in Python due to reduced overhead from looping in the interpreter.In this optimized version.
random_values) at once for all the bits in the bitstring.mutation_mask) that indicates which bits should be mutated based onself.mutation_rate.This approach minimizes the number of calls to
rand()and enhances the overall speed by utilizing efficient array operations.✅ Correctness verification report:
