c# - Why is my float automatically rounding and how do i get it to stop -

this question has answer here:

• why integer division in c# returns integer not float? 8 answers

why float automatically rounding , how stop

  float pagecount = 10/6; 

should 1.666 giving 1.0

your calculation being done in integer type since both operands of int type

cast or mark atleast 1 of operand float.

float pagecount = 10/6f; //6f specifying 6 float 

or

float pagecount = ((float) 10)/6; 

in current form, both operands of integer type , division results in integer value why 1 not 1.666
