i pass coordinates -40 and -40 to a method like below and the robot test is as below

Test something
    asset_something -40 -40

So in the above statement -40 and -40 are treated as strings.

assert_something (-40, -40) {
    xcoord = (location['x'] + element.size['width'] /2) - 
    (canvas.location['x'] + canvas.size['width'] / 2)
    ycoord = (location['y'] + element.size['height'] /2) 
    (canvas.location['y'] + canvas.size['height'] // 2)
    assert xcoord == -40
    assert ycoord == -40
}

Here in the above method the value of xcoord and ycoord is -40.0 so i get an assertion error since i am comparing -40.0 to -40

how can do the assertion that both are equal..i tried below

xcoord = int(location['x'] + element.size['width'] /2) - (canvas.location['x'] + 
    canvas.size['width'] 
    / 2)
    ycoord = int(location['y'] + element.size['height'] /2) - (canvas.location['y'] + 
    canvas.size['height'] // 2)

but it was converting only ycoord to -40 but xcoord value remained to be -40.0 how can i fix this. thanks.

`-40.0 == -40` should evaluate to `True` – kuco 23 Sep 24 '19 at 11:48
yes but it gives assertion error not sure why – someuser2491 Sep 24 '19 at 11:52
please check the type(xcoord) and type(ycoord). – IrrupTor Sep 24 '19 at 11:55
typeofx typeofy they are float values – someuser2491 Sep 24 '19 at 12:04
typeox typeofy these values that i pass to the method are treated as strings. – someuser2491 Sep 24 '19 at 12:08
Try [this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41808286/assert-two-variables-are-almost-equal-in-python) and use a small delta and see if that works. – JeffC Sep 24 '19 at 13:21
