optimized script execution time - HTML Forums

Hi,
I have a snippet of javascript in a for loop where I need to assign the value of a variable to another 2 variables. Some thing like this.

Code:

cnt = arrayTemp.length;
for(i = 0; i < cnt; i++) {
    m = k;
    n  = k;
}

It is apparent that the two statements in the for loop can be written in a single statement. like

Code:

cnt = arrayTemp.length;
for(i = 0; i < cnt; i++) {
    m = n = k;
}

Since the for loop's iterations may go to several thousands at time, I would like to know which code is the optimum one and please tell me why!
Thanx in advace

I don't think there will be a difference speed wise, but you can always run a test to compare both.
