    Dear c++ friends, In VB we have, Dim MyDouble, MyInt MyDouble = 2345.5678 ' MyDouble is a Double. MyInt = CInt(MyDouble) ' MyInt contains 2346. Is there anything in c++ similar to CInt in VB? Thanks, Joy Anne

    hi, use reinterpret_cast value; snippet of code. int x; double y = 5.66; now x = reinterpret_cast y; // cast double to int data type. this is type conversion in c++. good luck, uday. uday kiran -- modified at 0:57 Wednesday 10th May, 2006

        I think he is trying to convert a double to int.

            Math.round public static int round( float a ) Returns the value of the argument rounded to the nearest int value. -------------------------- just do it like that : #include : double MyDouble = 2345.5678 // MyDouble is a Double. int MyInt = ROUND(MyDouble) // MyInt contains 2346. : double MyDouble = 2345.4678 // MyDouble is a Double. int MyInt = ROUND(MyDouble) // MyInt contains 2345.

                        Basic maths will do the trick. Try this: double d = 2345.5678; int i = d + 0.5 Steve

                          You don't need to use reinterpret_cast in this case and in fact shouldn’t: casting from double to int is implicit so the following will do the trick: double d = 3.5; int i = d; // Ok, d=3 Is you wanted to make the cast explicit (and there is good reason to do so as it will suppress a warning) static_cast is the right cast for the job. i.e. double d = 3.5; int i = static_cast<int>(d); Part of the point of adding the function style casts was to make your intent specific thus it is important to use the right cast for the job.

                            This will not round. You need something like this: double myD = 2345.5678; int myI = static_cast<int>(myD+0.5); Also note that I didn't use any C-style casts; they should never be used in C++ code. Steve

                              Which part did my 1-voter not like: The add 0.5 bit or the static_cast lecture? I stand by both of them but I believe that if you're going to down vote something in the programming forums it's good to reply and explain your objection. Steve

                                      I would guess so - nevertheless they shouldn't be used. Here are some reasons: - A wrong "bad" can cause havoc yet, if C-style casts are used you can’t “grep” the source code for them. - There are many distinct reasons to cast. For example, one is to remove const-ness; another is to “down-cast” in a class hierarchy. With C-style casts all casts look the same and so you have to guess at the intent. Function style casts are explicit and self documenting in this respect. - With C-style casts a simple mistake can change the type of cast and result in unintentional behaviour. For example if your casting to remove const-ness and then you change the type you’re casting it can changes into a “reinterpret” cast. With function style casts the compiler makes sure you can’t cast “more” then you should. i.e. a const_cast can only remove const-ness and not change the type. - Casting is ugly – a well designed program shouldn’t have any – or at most only a few in the lowest level of a system. Casts should be ugly as design errors should be visible. I could go on. There are just so many problems it just not funny. Steve

Function style casts are explicit and self documenting in this respect. - With C-style casts a simple mistake can change the type of cast and result in unintentional behaviour. For example if your casting to remove const-ness and then you change the type you’re casting it can changes into a “reinterpret” cast. With function style casts the compiler makes sure you can’t cast “more” then you should. i.e. a const_cast can only remove const-ness and not change the type. - Casting is ugly – a well designed program shouldn’t have any – or at most only a few in the lowest level of a system. Casts should be ugly as design errors should be visible. I could go on. There are just so many problems it just not funny. Steve

                                          Only that I could have made the list of problems with C-style casts longer. Steve
