$var = 0 Or $var = 0.0 is diferent?

[Luigi]

Hi forum!

Now i read a UDF, and see this way:

Local $iSomeVar = 0.0

Local $iAnotherVar = 1.80

For AutoIt, have any effect declare a variable with 0.0 or only 0?

Is more faster or burn more cpu? Or not have problem?

How is the best way (the best practice)?

Internally it is a different data type. Just try:

$iVar = 1
$fVar = 1.0
ConsoleWrite(VarGetType($iVar) & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite(VarGetType($fVar) & @CRLF)

 

[jchd]

ConsoleWrite(VarGetType(0) & @LF)
ConsoleWrite(VarGetType(0.0) & @LF)

That's merely the only effect, and infinitively close to zero. Your question looks like premature optimization.

Now I see: integer and [f]loat.

Thanks @jchd.

I guess the float would take up more space but we are talking about a few bytes here...
