In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

Re: convert data in integers

Hi tina123;

For the problem I gave you the simplest conversion that might occur in some programming language if you attempt to stuff a floating point constant into a variable of type integer.

There are other types of integer conversions which might give different answers.
