Assignment & Increment Operators

Question

/* When I input integers it outputs integers. However, when I input a decimal(ex:23.2) it outputs it with an extra "0" (ex:2320). I don't get the reason behind this. I started learning today. Please help. */
double x = 10;
Console.WriteLine("Enter a number:");
double z = Convert.ToDouble(Console.ReadLine());
x *= z;
Console.WriteLine(x)

Answer 1

first, tag your question with 'C#' next time, so we went have to guess which programming language you use.

second, i tried your code, and except for a missing semicolon at the end, it works as expected :

you can also find it also also in my public C# code playground as 'convert to double'.

At first I thought maybe your problem is due to other, later code, that prints the '0' after the original output, but WriteLine outputs a newline character after its output, so that's ruled out.
