How do I get a decimal value when using the division operator in Python?

Question

For example, the standard division symbol \'/\' rounds to zero:

>>> 4 / 100
0

However, I want it to return 0.04. What do I use?

Answer 1

You cant get a decimal value by dividing one integer with another, you'll allways get an integer that way (result truncated to integer). You need at least one value to be a decimal number.
