I feel like this error is something simple, but I cannot figure it out.

PHP Code:

PrintToConsole(client, "TEST2: %f", 8 / 10); 


Output:

PHP Code:

TEST2: 0.000000

The issue is that it outputs 0.000000 instead of 0.8

try

PHP Code:

PrintToConsole(client, "TEST2: %f", 8.0 / 10.0); 


8 = integer
10 = interger
8.0 = float
10.0 = float

You're dividing integers, so you're going to get back an integer (whose value will be 0).

PHP Code:

float someNum = 1/2; 


Will store a value of 0 inside of someNum.

PHP Code:

float someNum = 1/2.0; 


Will store a value of .5 into someNum.

Either the numerator or the denominator has to be a float in order to get the results you are expecting, but if you must use integer values you can convert from int to float like this.

PHP Code:

float someNum = 1/float(2); 


[hmmmmm]

I think when you do integer division and result is (or should be) a float, the result gets truncated instead of rounded. So 8 / 10 = 0.8. But cus its integers the 8 gets cut off and you're left with 0.

Thanks, everyone! This is now solved.
