Tweak your HW8 code (random walk) to extract every bit of performance possible. At minimum, you need to generate an Excel plot that shows runtime vs optimization tried (vertical axis should be runtime, horizontal axis should be optimization tried). Your chart needs to have at least 5 different optimizations.
Your worst runtime needs to be around 30 seconds, so you will probably have to wrap your code in a for-loop to get it to run long enough. I suggest you pick a seed for the random number generator too.
To measure the runtime, you will need to add a time counter (clock) to your code.
REQUIREMENTS: ------------- 1. Your program must run in Streibel 115/109 or on shell.aero.und.edu.
2. Your full name must appear as a comment at the beginning of your program.
