okay so whats the difference from such codes like this

if (object == 1) then 

to

  
if object == 1 then 
  

?

[CapY]

None.

[Al3grab]

there are no deference but the first one is more organised and its more like scripting style.

[Cyandie]

Alright thanks this explains it more

[IIYAMA]

and if you write it like this:

if object == 2 or (object == 1) then

Will it first check 1 and than it will check 2?

or still 2 > 1.

In math first thing to do > ( )

?

None, though I use the 2nd style - it makes the code less ugly and doesn't give such a confusing luck (and you save 2 bytes!)

This

if var then 

is the same as

if ((((((((((var))))) == (((((var2)))))))))) then

Exactly, save two bytes is saving! Recycle!

Cheers everyone for putting in your input

I always not use this because someone can confusing with this. For example if i write some big condition.

IIYAMA, '( )' working only in arithmetic but not in imparity! If you confusing use lua demo.

I don't use it at all. I only use it when it's needed, which means for example math. We all know when we need brackets in math, no?

Erm, '()' take barely 4 bits. ( 1 byte = 8 bits )
