Benchmark: Direct vs Binded Multi Call

Script Preparation code:

class Class {
  	constructor() {
      this.binded = this.direct.bind(this);
    }
	direct() {
      return this;
    }
}
var obj = new Class();

Tests:

Direct
obj.direct().direct();
Binded
obj.binded().binded();

Let's break down the provided benchmark and explain what's being tested.

**Benchmark Definition**

The benchmark is testing two different approaches to calling methods on an object: `direct` and `binded`. The script preparation code defines a class with a constructor that sets up the binding between the `direct` method and the `binded` property. This means that when you call `obj.direct()`, it returns the bound value of `this` within the context of the original call, whereas calling `obj.binded()` would return the actual object instance.

**Options Compared**

Two options are being compared:

1. **Direct**: Calling `obj.direct()` directly on the object.
2. **Binded**: Calling `obj.binded()` on the object, which returns the bound value of `this`.

**Pros and Cons**

* **Direct (obj.direct())**:
	+ Pros: Simple and intuitive way to call methods on an object.
	+ Cons: May lead to unexpected behavior if not considering the context in which the method is being called.
* **Binded (obj.binded())**:
	+ Pros: Allows for more control over the binding of `this` within a specific context, which can be useful in certain scenarios.
	+ Cons: Requires additional setup and consideration to ensure correct behavior.

**Library Usage**

The benchmark uses the `bind()` method, which is a part of the JavaScript language itself. The `bind()` method takes an optional first argument, which is used as the context (`this`) for subsequent calls to the bound function.

**Special JS Feature or Syntax**

There is no special JS feature or syntax being tested in this benchmark, but it does use some advanced concepts like binding and method invocation on objects.

**Other Considerations**

The benchmark assumes that the `direct` and `binded` methods are defined correctly on the object. It also doesn't account for any potential side effects or errors that might occur during the execution of these methods.

**Alternatives**

If you wanted to write a similar benchmark, you could consider using different approaches to compare:

* Using a testing framework like Jest or Mocha
* Writing tests in a programming language other than JavaScript (e.g., Python)
* Comparing the performance of different virtual machines or runtimes (e.g., Node.js vs. browser engines)

Keep in mind that this benchmark is specific to JavaScript and its method invocation mechanisms, so you might need to adapt or create similar benchmarks for other languages or platforms.

In terms of alternatives on MeasureThat.net, you could consider writing benchmarks for:

* Different JavaScript engines or runtimes (e.g., Node.js vs. browser engines)
* Various programming languages and their performance characteristics
* Specific libraries or frameworks and their performance under different scenarios

I hope this explanation helps! Let me know if you have any further questions or need more clarification.
