Question

I got a problem regarding the integer part and decimal part of a number. Actually what I need is say I have a number ‘101’. this is actually came after some calculations and its time. I need to find the hrs and min. So what I did is

              overtime = 101
                    Dim fraction As Decimal = 0
                    If overtime > 59 Then
                        fraction = overtime / 60
                        'overtime = overtime / 60
                        fraction = fraction - CInt(fraction)
                        fraction = fraction * 60
                        Dim str() As String = Split(fraction.ToString, ".")
                        Try
                            If str(2).Length > 2 Then

                            End If
                        Catch ex As Exception

                        End Try

                    End If 

but the integer is getting rounded so that I get the wrong answer.

Answer 1

Look at the \ operator (opposite direction slash from the normal division operator), which automatically truncates off the decimal portion leaving only an integer, and the Mod operator, which returns only the remainder of a division operation.
