Question

I cannot figure out which way it goes. It seems like casting it into an int would make more sense because of the whole float point issue but like I said, I am not sure. Does anyone know?

Answer 1

Try this code:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
    if (100.1 == 100)
        printf("Must be integer compare\n");
    else
        printf("Must be floating point compare\n");
    return 0;
}

Also, think about things like int i = 10; float j = 100.5 + i; or 100.2 == 100. You don’t want it to be done with integers!
