Remember, the goal is to make this as efficient as possible with graal script.

Do you want me to rank them or tell you how efficient I think they are? x-x

The theory behind big-O notation is that it should be an accurate measure of code efficiency regardless of language or hardware. Different servers run the same code in different time. Additionally, though big-O is only an approximation, it is most accurate for LARGE n.

I don't see what you're so upset about, you made a good contribution.
