+| Input size | Way 1   | Way 2  | Way 3  | Way 4  |
+| ---------- | ------- | ------ | ------ | ------ |
+| 10000      | 0.655s  | 0.703s | 0.664s | 0.665s |
+| 20000      | 1.376s  | 1.446s | 1.290s | 1.292s |
+| 50000      | 3.355s  | 3.501s | 2.750s | 1.645s |
+| 100000     | 6.778s  | 5.002s | 3.375s | 3.438s |
+| 200000     | 12.119s | 7.514s | 7.267s | 7.021s |  
+
+Though it looks like the Way4 is way better tha Way 1(Almost twice as fast), but if we let the computer to rest for a while and rerun them the other way(start from 4, then 3, follow by 2 and 1), we got  
+| Input size | Way 1  | Way 2  | Way 3  | Way 4   |
+| ---------- | ------ | ------ | ------ | ------- |
+| 200000     | 7.146s | 7.610s | 7.120s | 12.103s |  
+
+It is exactly the other way around! I belive it is because the input file becomes too large
+(42 MByte), so it waste a lot of time to load it to memory then cache, and the following ones has much higher cache hits rate, so the first one takes way longer than the others.
