Im using 2.6 python and when running this
class progess():
def __init__(self, number, total, char):
percentage = float(number/total*100)
percentage = int(round(percentage))
char = char * percentage
print char
progess(100, 999, "*")
the "percentage = float(number/total*100)" always equals 0.0
any ideas way this would be?
You have to make the conversion of integer to float before the
division. What you are calculating now is (take number = 998, total =
999)
number/total = 998/999 = 0
number/total*100 = 0*100 = 0
float(number/total*100) = float(0) = 0.0
Change "float(number/total*100)" to "float(number)/total*100" and it
should work:
float(number) = float(998) = 998.0
float(number)/total = 998.0/999 = 0.99899899899899902
float(number)/total*100 = 0.99899899899899902 * 100 = 99.899899899899902
changed it to "float(number)/total*100" and it worked thanks for all
your help appreciated
thanks again
