TypeCasting

[KKR]

I need to fill the array asfollows const float feature_scal_intervall_low[NR_FEATURES] = { 0.1,0.0,0.1,0.1,0.3 ,0.2,0.1,0.1,0.0,0.2 }; Getting Warning : warning C4305: 'initializing' : truncation from 'const double' to 'const float' How to typecast above array?? Any Suggesstions. Thanks in advance Warm Regards, KKRam

Numbers written in 0.1 format are treated as doubles, to get he compiler to treat them as floats write them as 0.1f Roger Allen Sonork 100.10016 Were you different as a kid? Did you ever say "Ooohhh, shiny red" even once? - Paul Watson 11-February-2003

Its always better to use a 'double' array instead of float. If you are very specific about float array, you can initialize it by explicitly type-casting each element as shown below. const float feature_scal_intervall_low[ NR_FEATURES ] = { (float)0.1,(float)0.0,(float)0.1,(float)0.1,(float)0.3 ,(float)0.2,(float)0.1,(float)0.1,(float)0.0,(float)0.2 }; "A robust program is resistant to errors -- it either works correctly, or it does not work at all; whereas a fault tolerant program must actually recover from errors."
