[Pawn] Skipping extra spaces

[Y_Less]

Another way you can do this is to loop through once, and shift all letters backwards. Every time you see a space you increase this shift offset:

PHP Code:

DeSpace(string[])

{

    new

        // Read index.

        i = -1,

        // Write index.

        j = -1,

        // Current character.

        ch,

        // Did we already see a space?

        bool:space;

    do

    {

        if ((ch = string[]) != ' ')

        {

            // Not a space, just copy it.

            string[] = ch;

            // Mark us as having NOT just seen a space.

            space = false;

        }

        else if (!space)

        {

            // First space.  Any more just ignore them.

            string[] = ch;

            // Mark us as having just seen a space.

            space = true;

        }

    }

    while (ch);

} 


Is this better? I don't know. It will depend on the length of the string and the number of double spaces.
