I know the uninitialized local variable is undefined behaviour(UB), and also the value may have trap representations which may affect further operation, but sometimes I want to use the random number only for visual representation and will not further use them in other part of program, for example, set something with random color in a visual effect, for example:
void updateEffect(){
for(int i=0;i<1000;i++){
int r;
int g;
int b;
star[i].setColor(r%255,g%255,b%255);
bool isVisible;
star[i].setVisible(isVisible);
}
}
is it that faster than
void updateEffect(){
for(int i=0;i<1000;i++){
star[i].setColor(rand()%255,rand()%255,rand()%255);
star[i].setVisible(rand()%2==0?true:false);
}
}
and also faster than other random number generator?
