#### basic language speed test
This is NOT a comprehensive test at all, I am simply bored. Languages have much more to them than which can count faster.
The test involves simple conditions, calculate the fibonacci sequence until it is past 999 million, then repeat this task 1 billion times.
This only measures the speed of handling these integers but I found the results very interesting.
I've added some extra math to force compilers to not completely inline the loops.

##### relevant hardware
* CPU: Ryzen 7 1700 @ 3.8ghz (all test were single threaded)
* RAM: 16 gb DDR4 @ 2133mhz
* Gentoo Linux
* Kernel 5.18.1
##### future test
* deno with JS
* Kotlin
* pearl
* ruby
If you notice any issues create an issue or PR, in the future I hope to test memory performance. I am not experienced in many of these languages, so if the test is coded in a poor way then please make a PR!
