PHP Code:

IsValidEntity(ActiveWeapon) 


and

PHP Code:

ActiveWeapon != -1 


the same actions, but written in different ways?

They are not the same (because -1 isn't the only invalid index), but almost every function that returns an entity will only return either a valid entity index, or -1.

Most of the time, you can get away with just making sure that the entity isn't -1.

As Pawn 3-pg said not same. Better use IsValidEntity so you can be sure that is valid.
