Compare Toolbox Deltapoint versus inline calculation
Anyway why not paste this in and see for yourself...
DIM aPt.4, bPt.4
_numTrials=3000000
WINDOW 1
CALL SETPT(aPt, 100,-1)
CALL SETPT(bPt, 10,100)
now&=FN TICKCOUNT
FOR j&=1 TO _numTrials
diff&=FN DELTAPOINT(aPt,bPt)
NEXT
now&=FN TICKCOUNT-now&
PRINT FN HIWORD(diff&), FN LOWORD(diff&)
PRINT "FN DELTAPOINT" now&"ticks"
now&=FN TICKCOUNT
FOR j&=1 TO _numTrials
diffh=aPt.h% -bPt.h%
diffv= aPt.v% -bPt.v%
NEXT
now&=FN TICKCOUNT-now&
PRINT diffv, diffh
PRINT "direct calc" now&"ticks"
DO: UNTIL FN BUTTON
