Why C++ instead of C#?

You're running it against mono? That's most certainly slower than the MS implementation.

.NET core I think? What's mono, that means monkey in Spanish.

Mono is a . Net runtime, is like another runtime alternative to the "CLR" . net runtime ( the . net runtime that uses . net 5 and . net core as far as i know )

Yeah. Mono is the open source version of the .net runtime. If you're running on Linux, Android or Mac the "original" version from Microsoft isn't available - you will have to resort to the open source implementation (Mono). If I remember things correctly, Microsoft made the source code of the CLR public to facilitate implementations on other platforms than windows, but there are license issues that prevent the mono developers from just using the MS code for their implementation, which means while behaving in the same way, the classes are implemented differently under the hood and very probably not as efficient. It's been quite some time ago that I last worked with mono, but I remember it being quite buggy and slow, and some stuff wasn't implemented yet. I think that has changed, though, especially since mono is so heavily used by Unity for scripting.

I think you're confused. Never heard of "mono", and I'd call myself a pretty seasoned C# developer.

You can call yourself king, too. Doesn't make you one

Huh, how can I be wrong that I've never heard of it? There's no mention of "mono" at the official .NET wikipedia page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.NET

I'm not on Windows and yes I'm running Microsoft .NET not "Mono".

The assemblies having "Microsoft" in their name does not imply that you're running the Microsoft CLR. All assemblies in the mono version are named exactly as they are in the Microsoft version (to ensure maximum compatibility). You may want to check which packages you have installed - I would bet that mono is amongst them.

On a side note, I have to apologize to you guys: I simply did not find the time yet to make the changes to the C version that I promised. Unless someone beats me to it, I will however do them in short time.

Sometimes I wonder if you're serious or trolling.

Of course MS doesn't mention Mono on their official pages. It's not a Microsoft project; they only sponsor it with documentation and a bit of development effort. Mono is much older than Microsoft's own port of .NET (Core) to Linux. Mono has been around since the .NET 1.1 days. Actually, the original starter of the project is Miguel de Icaza. (The same guy who started Gnome, then abandoned Linux to move to a Mac because he was of the opinion that Linux had become a mess,, and he now works for Microsoft, porting software to Linux and Mac.)

Does .NET actually run on Linux? AFAIK, it's only .NET Core that runs on Linux, but since version 5, everything is called .NET again I believe. I lost track at some point.
