How do I divide integers that equal float C?

[bsmath]

I tried the program below to divide integers by integers (a, n, h etc. below) that equal C, but it does not divide correctly. Someone told me that "float C=float();" should have an epsilon somewhere. The computer language is C++. Can you tell me how to program it so it will divide properly?

#include<iostre am>
#include<string >
#include<iomani p>
#include<math.h >
#include<stdio. h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
//Start Coding Here
//Declare And Initialize The Variables
int a=int();
int h=int();
float C=float();
int n=int();
int b=int();
int q=int();

? Can't you just check if the divisor is 0?

it appears you should start with the basics, such has data types ( like int, float, char, ... ). Anyway, what you should be doing would look something like this ( notice the low number of include files at the top ...

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
int a(0); 
int h(0);
float C(0.0);

// then to get a float value out, you would have to "cast" each integer to a float
// you do this so that you will get a decimal answer.
// if you divide two "int" variables, you will return an "int"
// but if you tell the compiler that one ( or both ) is a "float", you'll get a float result

C = (float)a / (float) h;

// or you could do

C = (float)a / h;

[weaknessforcats]

C = (float)a / (float) h;

The variables a and h are ints. ints have no decimal portion. That is if you divide 7 by 2, the result is 3. Meaning there are 3 twos
in 7. The result is not 3.5 becuse there is no such thing as half a 2 where an int is concerned.

The rules of significant fihures also state that a result cannot be more accurate than the coarsest of its components. That is, you cannot make thinks more accurate by tacking on decimal places. For 3.5 to be the result you have to start with 7.0 / 2.0. Fir 3.50 to be the result you have to start with 7.00/2.00

Further integers are a subset of real values. In the integer subset there are no values that are portions of integers. Integers by definition are the counting numbers, their additive inverses and the identity element.

Do try to avoid mixing integers and floating point.

Thank you for your answer.
