C# simple divide problem

Question

I have this:

 double result = 60 / 23;

In my program, the result is 2, but correct is 2,608695652173913. Where is problem?

Answer 1

60 and 23 are integer literals so you are doing integer division and then assigning to a double. The result of the integer division is 2.

Try

double result = 60.0 / 23.0;

Or equivalently

double result = 60d / 23d;

Where the d suffix informs the complier that you meant to write a double literal.
