How can I force division to be floating point?

Question

Division keeps rounding down to 0

Answer 1

There are multiple ways of doing it.

Let's consider two variables as follows:

a = 10

b = 3

Method #1: by explicitly converting one of them to float

c = float(a) / b

Method #2: by multiplying 1.0 to one of the numbers

c = a * 1.0 / b
