Title: PIC18 Simulator IDE division Post by: malibus on January 04, 2009, 09:11:12 21:11 Hi,
I am working on a voltmeter, in PIC18 Simulator IDE. How make a division of two integers, and get the 2 numbers after the decimal point? If this possible? Title: Re: PIC18 Simulator IDE division Post by: pickit2 on January 05, 2009, 03:42:28 15:42 me thinks you need to read up on maths, integers are whole numbers, you can't have a decimal place.
I can't see what you are trying to do with above problem. to use a pic as a voltmeter = one analoge input. and a display, be it leda or lcd.

How put to the lcd this value, but expressed in V ( 18.235V) without division on 1000?

If you don't want to divide just convert "18235" into BCD notation (0x18235, note: such a big number cannot be held by an "int" use "unsigned short long" instead) and then send nibble by nibble to the LCD. You can position the decimal point accordingly this way.
