int to double c

Converting an int to a double in C

To convert an int to a double in C, you can simply assign the int value to a double variable. The compiler will automatically perform the conversion. Here's an example:

int num = 10;
double decimalNum = num;

In this example, the int variable num is assigned to the double variable decimalNum. The value of num is implicitly converted to a double and stored in decimalNum.

It's important to note that the conversion from int to double may result in a loss of precision, as double can represent larger and more precise numbers than int. However, if the int value can be accurately represented as a double, the conversion will be exact.

Explanation of the steps:

1. Declare an int variable and assign it a value. For example: c int num = 10;

2. Declare a double variable to store the converted value. For example: c double decimalNum;

3. Assign the int value to the double variable. For example: c decimalNum = num;

The int value num is implicitly converted to a double and stored in decimalNum.

That's it! The int value has been successfully converted to a double.
