Anyone know the difference?

Guys, could anyone please tell me the difference between the following statements:

[code]if(OpticalEncoder)

and


[code]if(input(OpticalEncoder))

[/code]Do these work the same way in MicroC?

Experiment. Put the statements in a test program that maybe blinks a led.
Somethings like learning to write have to be taught but many things can be discovered by experimenting. Coding involves a bit of teaching of syntax but if the statement compiles then experimenting is the better way to proceed.
If you have CCS C and micro C then test with both

In first case, "OpticalEncoder" is a C variable.
In second case, "OpticalEncoder" corresponds to a pin of the PIC that shall be defined through a #DEFINE directive.
