precision error in output

Question

double x = 9/2
//x == 4.0?

The output should be 4.5, but is 4.0 What would be the mistake I made?

`9/2` returns `4` (since you are dividing `int`s result is also `int`). — Pshemo, Feb 08 '16 at 17:54

9/2 <- without decimal you are specify this as a int

9.0 / 2.0 <- this is now double and you should able to get 4.5
