Division in c# gives wrong value.

[MABON]

Hello friends,
I am tried to write code to show my image correctly. In one of program I have two numbers like "breedtesPlaatjes" and "hoogtesPlaatjes" with value 900 and 600 respectively. When I load these two numbers I get wrong result. I don't know why Division in c# gives wrong value. Please help me. I have written following code for your information.

{
    double verHs = (hoogtePlaatjes/breedtePlaatjes);
    int vHeights = Converts.ToInt32(verHs * 239);

    msOptsMediums.Height = vHeight;
    msOptsMediums.Width = 239;

    
    if (hoogtePlaatje < 179)
    {
        mOptsMediums.Height = 179;
        mOptsMediums.Width = 239;
    }
}

You must know that when you divide int value by another int value it gives int result.

double verHs = (hoogtePlaatjes/breedtePlaatjes);

In your code your "verHs" is double and you are tried to assign them int value and that's why you are getting such type of problem. In this case change the data type of breedtePlaatjes and hoogtePlaatjes to double to get proper result.

You have to use one of the parameters of the division to be of float type, so that you can get result of float type. This is very easy to do. You can do this by casting one of them to a float. Just look at following code.

double verHss = (double)hoogtePlaatjess/breedtePlaatjess;

Or you can use

double verHs = hoogtePlaatjes/(double)breedtePlaatjes;

From your information it seems that you haven't learn C# language very and that's why you have made this silly mistake. You are tried to assign inst value to variable of data type double. In this case you have to cast one of the variables to double, like this:

double verHs = (double)hoogtePlaatjes/breedtePlaatjes;

[Zecho]

double verHs = (hoogtePlaatjes/breedtePlaatjes);

In your code the hoogtePlaatjess and breedtePlaatjess are of int type and you are tried to assign them to variable of double data type and that's why you are getting such type of problem. In this case you have to use following:

double verHs = double (hoogtePlaatjes) / breedtePlaatejes;

In above code I have cast hoogtePlaatjes to double.

As per my information when you are tried to divide two integers and if your division generate fractional part, then that fractional part is discarded. In your case you're getting:
900 / 350 = 0 + 3.5/9
Which, discarding the fractional part, gives:
900 / 350 = 0
In this case to get floating point result, you have to cast one of the arguments to double to fix this problem.
