problem with float assignment

[samosato]

I have following problem : I have condition and in netbeans its saying : warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast if (var==varb+c) { sbod='b';} here is declaration : char sbod; float var,varb,c; any idea what might be worng with my condition ?

I did not understand your problem but as a general note, you must never directly compare floating point values. You will be surprised that it doesn't always work out and lead to subtle bugs. Google about comparing float values in C to find out more.

Something strange about that message, although I guess you are getting an automatic cast from char to int. As mentioned in the previous answer, don't use == expressions to compare float values as they are always approximations, unless whole numbers, but even then you can lose precision with very large values.

Just say 'NO' to evaluated arguments for diadic functions! Ash

Maybe Neatbeans is drunk or you reported the wrong piece of code, please check for both possibilities. :)
