strval(string[]); - convert a string into an integer.

This is the most efficient way i know.

Then why some people use sscanf ?

With sscanf you can split/explode the string into pieces, and put the pieces into a variable/an other array.

If it is only used for converting strings to integers, probably because it is known as an efficient function

.

Well, those standard functions of Pawn are very fast and sscanf has to verify things, like the specifiers, before accomplishing the conversion.
