(...) Coercion is done by putting the type you want to convert it to in parens before the thing being converted; e.g.: float f = (float) 33; int i = (int) 10.; best, Fred (28 years ago, 26-Sep-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I need to convert a int to either a long or float. I've always had a compiler that auto converts. I don't remember how to do it. I'd welcome any help. Jim (28 years ago, 26-Sep-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Check out (URL) the B-BOT frame by Marvin Green, which costs around $30. It has a clever bumper arrangement which allows it to sense collisions in all directions (similar to the Rug Warrior). Of course, there's always LEGO. -- Randy (28 years ago, 22-Sep-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
