Division in picbasic pro

[silvabelbr]

Is the picbasic pro accepts the decimal points specially in division (ex: 25.6/2.5)
if not what can i do??

thanx in advance

As far as I know , NO, PBP will not handle decimals. ( V 2.47 ).
You have to use integers only , and always remember that reminders are cut off.
For your example : 25.6/2.5 yo have to amplify by 10 , so you do 256/25 but the outcome will be INT 10 , decimal part is lost.
You will have to code an mathematical algorithm to recover the 0,24 ( decimal part ) and decide what to do . 256 / 25 = 10 x 25 + 6
I think you can google around for this kind of algorithm, there are quiet a few out there.

It is easy to obtain decimal points.
25.6 x 1000=25600
2,5 x 10= 25
(25,6 x 1000)/(2,5 x10)  (we have multiplied upper part by 100)
25600/25 = 1024
decimal = 1024/100= 10
fraction= 1024//100=24  (this is the MOD process)
