playerprefs compare values

[Kurt-Dekker]

There’s no API method but you could trivially make a static method to do it.

You should be wrapping up your PlayerPrefs stuff in a static class anyway, just to keep it tidy:

Here’s an example of simple persistent loading/saving values using PlayerPrefs:

Useful for a relatively small number of simple values.

Never test floating point (float) quantities for equality / inequality. Here’s why:

Debug.Log(2000.0f * 000.1f); is 200

Now that you have had your coffee, don't forget about floating point imprecision: // @kurtdekker: don't forget about floating point imprecision using UnityEngine; public class FloatingPointImprecision : MonoBehaviour { void Start () { float a = 2000.0f; float b = 0.1f; float product = (a * b); float answer = 200; Debug.Log( "a = " + a); Debug.Log( "b = " + b); Debug.Log( "product of a*b = " + product); Debug.Log( "answer …

Why Doesn't This Code Work?

This will explain it all. In an IEEE single-floating point number you can represent certain numbers perfectly and unambiguously. For instance, 0.5f is precisely represented as 0x3f000000 However, 0.1f CANNOT be precisely represented. One possible approximate representation is 0x3DCCCCCD The analogy is that you cannot show 1/3rd precisely as a decimal. 0.33 is correct to 2 decimal places 0.3333 is correct to 4 places etc. But you can never exactly represent 1/3rd as a decimal numeral.
