I never really payed much attention to var…whats the point?
I think it restricts the variable to a number? strict data typing?
Does it do like Game Maker 6.1 so that if u define the variable i as a “var” cause u want to use it in a loop, then the object that called the loop wont have i=10 as one of its variables?
so if an object (or _root) calls heaps of loops, then by making i,k,n or whatever variable u use a var, does it stop you getting an object ( or _root ) littered with useless vars?
or are there any other benefits?
