Ported My Zig Tool to C and Got Almost a 40% Performance Boost!

I've been interested in learning OpenMP and wanted a project that kinda gives a useful output so I can compare results and see the difference, that kinda keeps me motivated. So I ended up picking C over other languages not because I’m some chad C dev, but because I’m not; I think that’s a good way to really dig into the language.

That being said, I ended up porting my Zig tool to C and got almost a 40% performance boost. Overall, I‘m really happy with how it turned out.

EDIT: I freaking love Zig.
