Whats the difference? - admantis - 16.12.2010

Whats the difference of:

pawn Код:

#define id playerid

and

pawn Код:

new id = playerid;

I was thinking on this last night before going to sleep :P

When you #define something, the intent is that it will be a static amount and will not change at all throughout the whole script.

Declaring a new variable is more dynamic and can be changed and reused for different values.

I kinda understand.. sometimes I use

pawn Код:

new id = playerid

just as a abrevation of playerid. Thanks
