What is the difference between a single action airbrush and a double action one?

I would like to know if there’s a difference between a dual-action airbrush and single action one. Anyone have the answer?

If I can remember correctly back to my college airbrush class (seems like a million years ago)…

With a double-action airbrush, you press the button to get the airflow, then pull back to start the paint.

With single-action you just get air and paint together right away (like a spraypaint can would do).

Ahhh yes. I remembered correctly.
