type casting

[brokalist]

Hello guys,any help you can provide will be appreciated......

Assume the following variable definitions:

int a = 5, b = 12;

double x = 3.4, z = 9.1;

What are the values of the following expressions?

a. b/a

b. x*a

c. static_cast<double>(b/a)

d. static_cast<double>(b)/a

e. b/static_cast<double>(a)

f. static_cast<double>(b)/static_cast<double>(a)

g. b/static_cast<int>(int)

h. static_cast<int>(x)*static_cast<int>(z)

i. static_cast(x*z)

j. static_cast<double>(static_cast<int>(x)*static_cast<int>(z))

This isn't a homework service. We're not going to do your homework for you.

If you have a specific question or need something clarified, we can help with that. But don't just post your assignment and ask us to solve it for you.

You can have the answers in 5 minutes.

I dont seem to know what the problem with this question is. Can someone help?

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int a = 5;
int b = 12;

double x = 3.4;
double z = 9.1;
cout<< "b/a";
return 0;
}

If you have access to a computer with a C++ compiler, why not use a program similar to the one above to print the values of all the expressions you're unsure about?

cout<< "b/a"; well "b/a" is a string isn't it and that is what will be printed on the screen.

what you want is something like:
cout<< "b/a is .... " << b/a << endl;
