- Place the code you'd like to time inside a function called
execute. - Inside LangCompare, select the files with the code. LangCompare will compile (if necessary) then run the files in a subprocess, timing how long it takes for the code to complete.
- Linux
- macOS
- C++ via clang++ or g++ compiler
- Python >= 3.7
For information on how to contribute, please see CONTRIBUTING.rst. We'd love contributions that contain support for your favorite language, additional algorithm demonstrations, and interesting features.

What compiler settings does LangCompare use for code it compiles?
C++ currently compiles with compiler optimizations using the -O3 flag and supports multithreading using the -pthread flag. In the future, we'd like to provide the user the ability to define their own compiler options.
-
My code includes additional header files or python modules, but LangCompare can't read them?
If on MacOS, right click the .app and select "Show package contents", then navigate to Contents > MacOS > code. Move the files into the "code/" directory.
While not currently supported on Linux, you should be able to mount or extract the AppImage and then place the files inside the "code/" directory that resides next to the LangCompareV2 executable.
