how to convert int to float

Hi all,

I have two variable, count and totalcount, both are integer

My result is declared as float,

When I perform

result = count/totalcount;

it did not return a float as it should be.

Instead, it return 0 (eg 5/25)

How can I convert it to float

Thanks

Sorry Keyu, but you posted the same wrong answer as was previously posted...

int count, totalCount;

count = 5;

totalCount = 25;

float result = Convert.ToSingle(totalCount /count );

I hope this will help.

totalCount/count will still be calculated in integer precision.

The correct answer is:

float result = count / (float)totalCount;

Sorry Matthew,

You are right I just took the quesiton wrong as you can assume from my answer above.

int a = 4;
int b = 25;
float result = ((float)(a))/b;

result is 0.16
