Timings - pre-allocation
In the previous exercise, growing the vector took around 2 seconds.
How long does it take when we pre-allocate the vector? The pre_allocate() function is defined below.
n <- 30000
# Fast code
pre_allocate <- function(n) {
x <- numeric(n) # Pre-allocate
for(i in 1:n)
x[i] <- rnorm(1)
x
}

The pre_allocate() function is available in your workspace.
- Using
system.time(), find how long it takes to runpre_allocate(n). Use the<-trick to store the result in the objectres_allocate.
