Differences between C and PAWN

If you know how to program in C, than program in PAWN is like being at your second home. However there are couple of differences to keep in mind. This list shows the most important of them to make life easier:

  • there is no need for ; at the end of each line

  • PAWN has Packed and unpacked strings and arrays

  • Only 2 dimensional arrays are possible

  • There is only one type - cell, it is like a 32 bit signed integer

  • Functions can have Default parameters

  • TBD, const, call by reference etc...
