Question In Regards To 'floatcmp' Usage? - DrakeX - 04.06.2014

Would this:

pawn Код:

if(floatcmp(1.0, 1.0) == 0)
if(floatcmp(1.0, 1.0) == -1)
if(floatcmp(1.0, 1.0) == 1)

Be the exact same as this:

pawn Код:

if(1.0 == 1.0)
if(1.0 < 1.0)
if(1.0 > 1.0)

What is the difference between using these two methods (floatcmp and operators)? Is one more accurate, or are they just the same (similar to floatdiv)?

correction

pawn Код:

if(floatcmp(1.0, 1.0) == 0)
if(floatcmp(1.0, 1.5) == -1)
if(floatcmp(1.5, 1.0) == 1)

but to answer you, yes
floatdiv is a different function. simply divides the 2 floats and returning a result

They're the exact same. If you would open 'include/float.inc', you would see several functions like this:

Код:

stock bool:operator==(Float:oper1, Float:oper2)
    return floatcmp(oper1, oper2) == 0;

They basically make sure that the operators work with floats. In other words, if the compiler finds a '==' with a float in your script, it will replace that operator with the 'floatcmp' function. If you would remove all the 'operator' stocks from 'float.inc', operators would not work anymore with floats.
