correct? variable/100 = zero?

[Brian Kester]

Please explain why the MT4 result is 0 rather than .01 ?  thanks.

 

int number=1;

double Perc_As_Decimal = number/100;  
  
//-- result expected: .01

Print("result = "+Perc_As_Decimal);

result = 0

You must declare variable "number" as double or make type cast:

double Perc_As_Decimal = (double)number/100;
