    Default Please describe the output of the following program! 

    class Typecast
{
	public static void main(String p[])
	{
 
		int m=45;
		int y=23;
 
		int h=m/y; 
		System.out.println(h);		
 
		/*
		float r=m/f;
		System.out.println(r);
                */
	}
}
    after executing this program,i got value of h as 1.
    next, executing the part which is in comments gave me 1.0

    after m/y operation, the output value is a literal which is either a double or int. but my output is coming both times. so what is the value of m/y?? int or float??

    The code is using integer division so 4/3 = 1 and 2/4 = 0.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
