Answer 1

Remember f is always written with floats

Answer 2

public class Program
{
public static void main(String[] args) {
//int myMarks[4];
float myMarks[] = new float[4];
myMarks[0] = 11.11f;
System.out.println( myMarks[0]);

}
}

Answer 3

Atul oh, that's a valuable piece of information. Thanks a lot.

Answer 4

Jerry Hobby It's so nice. That looks more like a type conversion. Is that mandatory with all floating points all the time?

Answer 5

No it is an explicit typecasting done by the programmer forcefully. You can use f in floats or can do typecasting by writing float at the beginning

Answer 6

Atul Thank you again, that cleared my doubt now.

Answer 7

Happy to help you

Answer 8

public class Program
{
public static void main(String[] args) {
//int myMarks[4];
float myMarks[] = new float[4];
myMarks[0] = (float) 11.11;
System.out.println( myMarks[0]);
}
}
