eval is evil

Ok, this was a neat trick. Well done.

roughly 10-20% more efficient from random tests

Whats strange is y==alphabeth[i] outperformed y===alphabeth[i]
Nothing significant, just 3-5% in favor of ==, but I would have suspected the opposite

I forgot that method exist, lol.

congenius

Thanks Johan! I have a lot of things to read about so I'll come back to this as soon as I have time xD

You have some things wrong, but to explain what actually happens would make two chapters of a good book on regular expression ( the one on capturing groups, and the one on how matching actually works ).

I really don't feel like writing that book ATM. Try finding some write-up somebody will doubtlessly have done already. You now know what to search for.

...for anyone who don't know JS.
