logical error on divisionThis tip submitted by M.Kumaran on 2005-08-17 02:32:10. It has been viewed 54124 times.Rating of 7.5 with 365 votes Look at the program
main()
{
float ans;
ans=5/10;
printf("%f",ans);
}
what is the output? The output is not like this: 0.50000 The output is 0.000000 because int/int = int so change the program to
main()
{
float ans;
ans=5/10.0;
printf("%f",ans);
}
the above programm is (int/float) so the output is now 0.500000 int/int = int int/float = float float/int = float float/float = float The above table can be summarized as: integer division takes place only when both elements are integers. More tips Help your fellow programmers! Add a tip! |
