what is compiling

[SaintSinner]

hello friends
what is compiling a script
what is the diffrence between that
and the other one, i guess "uncompiling" ..i dont know
what are the pros and cons with compiling.

ok uncompiled you can see the code you can read it, compiled is unreadable, uncompiled is also less effiecent, compiled gets rid of all the unneeded cr*p

Thanks phatty,
where can i see two diffrent examples of the same function like

the DataArrival function

and how would you edit if you cant read it?

thats whole point of compiled, i used to be open source for Gekko but now i compile, ppl were changing things that cud have helped other ppl, but they didnt have the kindess to say well can you do this and others may have also wanted due to helping them also, and ppl were abusing it like others scripts too, its not good, so i compile so now if they want to change something they gotta ask loool
