Hi guys,
I recently came across an error in my programs. When completing a calculation such as 4 / 3 it automatically returns 1, even if I include it in a double. Please tell me how to get around this problem. It is an essential to my code
Regards and thanks in advance,

That is because you are still doing integer division although the result is stored in a double variable. The solution is to make at least one of the operands be a double, or you can type cast.Originally Posted by mintsmike

Thank you very much.
I would now like to know how to give it to a certain degree of accuracy or a certain number of decimal points

double is 15 digits, float is 6. If you want to set the places seen by say std::cout then look for the function std::setprecision (I think that's the one).
