Simple programming question of the day, what is c?

int d = 5, c = 10, h = 16, f = 9;
double a = 48, e = 12, g = 3, b = 7;

int main()
{
c += (b + (a / c)) / 6.0;

return 0;
}

a / c = 4.8

4.8 + b = 11.8

11.8 / 6.0 = 1.96666667

c = 10, + 1.96666667 = 11.966666667

BUT

c is an int, so the result is truncated.

Therefore, c=11

And i’m Pretty sure the result would be the same in this case even if the truncation took place earlier in the process.

If we can, lets get the following:

  • Personality Results (already have this for everyone)
  • Engineering degree field
  • PE Discipline
  • Current work field
ISFJ

Degree is B.S. Electrical and Electronics Engineering

Discipline is Electrical

Work Field is Control Systems, Software, and Electrical Engineering (in that order)

How would you feel if the equation was:

Code:
[COLOR=rgb(0,0,0)]c [/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(102,102,0)]+=[/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(0,0,0)] [/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(102,102,0)]([/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(0,0,0)]b [/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(102,102,0)]+[/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(0,0,0)] [/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(102,102,0)]([/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(0,0,0)]a [/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(102,102,0)]/[/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(0,0,0)] c[/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(102,102,0)]))[/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(0,0,0)] [/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(102,102,0)]/[/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(0,0,0)] 5.9[/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(102,102,0)];[/COLOR]
