why is "result" equals 0.0 in eclipse? (code in the message)

Question

class MyClass{
public static void main(String[]args) {
int x=1;
int y=3;
double result=x/y;
System.out.println(result);
}
}

Answer 1

Because even if the var where its saved is doubled, you are dividing int. You can solve that Making the 1 and 3 doubles, or using Promotion:

double result= (double) x/y;
