Can some please clarify what this means in the documentation.

My apologies for this somewhat noob question but I'm not all that up to speed with MQL and reading through the documentation I see things like:-

Parameters
ticket

[in] Order index or order ticket depending on the second parameter.

select

[in] Selecting flags. It can be any of the following values:

SELECT_BY_POS - index in the order pool,
SELECT_BY_TICKET - index is order ticket.

My questions what does the [in] mean?


Thanks in advance.





 

you, have to provide this parameter (information) for the function, Unlike [out] u receive this parameter from the function

Example

bool  TextGetSize(
   const string       text,          // text string
   uint&               width,        // buffer width in pixels
   uint&               height        // buffer height in pixels
   );

Parameters

text

[in] String, for which length and width should be obtained.

width

[out] Input parameter for receiving width.

height

[out] Input parameter for receiving height.

 
Thanks.
