Multiplication problem

Well, it doesn't complain even with language extensions OFF. I don't know what the correct code if that's not correct. Perhaps someone else you fix it.

Eh, the old C-style casts:

Code:

---

z += ((float)5 - (float)y) * h2;

---

except that now it isn't just C-style, it is C.

I think Kempelen's ( 5 - (int) y) * h2 works, and Kempelen has stated as much. What does not work is the original program when this change is incorporated, but we cannot help debug something that we have no knowledge of.

You are correct. It works, I had a bug in the original programs that I have just fixed it.

Thanks all for the help..... I am learning that a lot of care must be taking when mixing different types of vars......

I just did that (I updated the code, too). I always use C-style casts, so I'm pretty used to them.

I misread. I thought he was expecting a floating point number in his x variable.
