Hi all
I have decided to re-embark on teaching myself coding that I started a few years ago. I have been studying old EA code, learning the basics again but I am getting a bit confused.
I thought I would be starting to write mql4 code when i open the MetaEditor but the template looks applicable to mql5. I have attached jpeg to show more clearer my query.
The MQL4 book mentions "In MQL4, there are three special functions in total. They have predefined names: init(), start(), and deinit()" but the template in the MetaEditor produces int OnInit() & OnDeinit and no no start() so is this mql5 programming?? its a bit confusing.
Hope someone can clear this up for me..
Cheers
