distance between center of circles

[1vf9z8AR]

Why is my output wrong?

cin>>x1>>y1>>r1>>x2>>y2>>r2;
        int dist=(sqrt(pow((x1-x2),2)+pow((y1-y2),2)));
        cout<<dist;

int can only store whole numbers. You probably want to store the result as a double instead.

but even when I input 100 in x1, y1, x2, and y2 I don't get 0 as my answer.

What is the type of x1, x2, etc. ?

float

Ok, I figured it out. No problem with the calculation rather another part of my program messing with the "dist" variable.
