== Why is this an issue?
|
|
|
|
When division is performed on ``++int++``s, the result will always be an ``++int++``. You can assign that result to a ``++double++``, ``++float++`` or ``++decimal++`` with automatic type conversion, but having started as an ``++int++``, the result will likely not be what you expect. If the result of ``++int++`` division is assigned to a floating-point variable, precision will have been lost before the assignment. Instead, at least one operand should be cast or promoted to the final type before the operation takes place.

decimal dec = 3/2; // Noncompliant
|
|
Method(3/2); // Noncompliant
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
static void Method(float f) { }
