With a pattern you get a slight improvement with (randomList /. (_?Negative -> 0)) However, Clip is much faster Clip[randomList, {0, Infinity}] Bob Hanlon On Sun, Jun 24, 2012 at 4:26 AM, Murta <rodrigomurtax at gmail.com> wrote: > HI all > I was working in some simulations with random numbers and get this example of performance comparition. > > randomList = RandomInteger[{-100, 100}, 10 10^6]; > > (randomList /.
