are they the same? if theyre not could you explain what the differece is

I DEMAND IT

pretty please

they aren't the same.
a buss is a channel that you can assign groups of tracks onto- this is useful if you want to add the same effect to every part of a drum kit and uses less processing power than putting the effect on each channel separately.

I don't feel confident in explaining what a send is but it's not the same as a buss.

Basicly you send the whole signal to a BUS and part of a signal to the SEND.

If you send a kick to a bus you send the signal through it. If you send it to a SEND you have 2 signals - one from the original channel and one from the send.

You can send a controlled amount of signal to the SEND, thats why it's often used with effects such as reverb - different amount of signal sent to the SEND equal different amounts of reverb to different signals.

BUSes are used as control groups for easier handling of audio. For example: you send your bass layers to it and compress them. Or your drums, or whatever.

A bus is a common electrical path which many signals can be combined into. A send sends your signal elsewhere and you control how much of the signal you want to send..you have no choice with the bus.

You should read the EDIT too

alright question numero dos - how the funk do i set up a buss in fruity. Sends are easy to set up so how do i go about creating a buss channel?

do as with sends, but do not route them to the master.

Read it's manual, probably says it the best way possible

worked a treat nice one . i suppose thats why with sends the output will always be louder as its using two signals instead of one?

In FL, haven't the foggiest. Follow the manual suggestion above, or type in 'setting up busses in fruity/fl' into google!
