new TypedArray
let arr = new Float32Array(1000000); arr[0] = Math.random(); var sum = 0; for (let i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) { sum+= arr[i]; }
new Array
let arr = new Array(1000000); arr[0] = Math.random(); var sum = 0; for (let i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) { sum+= arr[i]; }
Direct Array
let arr = []; arr[0] = Math.random(); var sum = 0; for (let i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) { sum+= arr[i]; }
