join/concat (v34)

Revision 34 of this benchmark created by Troy Kruthoff on

Description

A simpler check for testing for concat vs join outside of a loop (not building a string in a loop, typical use case would be to use a var in the string).

Preparation HTML

<script>
  var str = 'string';
  var barr = ['this', ' is', ' a', str, ' to', ' test', ' if', ' there', ' is', ' any', ' difference', ' between', ' concat', ' and', ' join'];
</script>
