    Why don't you time it and see? It looks like a pretty useless algorithm to me...
    If you understand what you're doing, you're not learning anything.

    Looks like it would take the same amount of time to me.

    >>which of the following takes less cpu time?
    Work it out for yourself, or rather should I say, let your computer work it out for you.

    Or if you have it:

    When all else fails, read the instructions.
    If you're posting code, use code tags: [code] /* insert code here */ [/code]
