How can I force division to be floating point? Division keeps rounding down to 0?

Question

I have two integer values a and b, but I need their ratio in floating point. I know that a < b, and I want to calculate a / b, so if I use integer division I'll always get 0 with a remainder of a. How can I force c to be a floating point number in Python in the following? c= a / b Select the correct answer from above options

Answer 1

Python 3 gives us the feature that we can directly get the value as a floating point by using division (/) operator. For getting the value in a floating point you can import a library called __future__. from __future__ import division a = 4 b = 6 c= a / b C Here is the way by which you can get your desired output. Another thing you can do is type-cast the b value into a float. That will also give you float value as output.
