simple division query

Former Member — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 04:40:50 GMT

Hi All,

I have simple query ...When i do division like 5/2 then answer will be whole number as 3....I am doing division of odd number with 2 but in that case i want answer to appear as earlier number e.g. if i divide 5/2 then i want answer as 2.

Is it possible ???...if yes how??

thnx.

Hi,

Do not take the output field type as type P. Take it as integer type and try.

Thanks,

Sri.

Hi,

Check this



DATA: a TYPE p DECIMALS 0,
      b TYPE p DECIMALS 0.
a = 5 / 2.
b = floor( a ).
WRITE: b.



DATA: a TYPE i,
      b TYPE i.
a = 5 / 2.
WRITE: a.

Hi,

Try this,

data : num1 TYPE p VALUE 2,
          num2 TYPE p VALUE 5,
          num3 TYPE p .

num3 = trunc( num2 / num1 ).
WRITE num3.

Hi,

Check out the code below.

data : num type p value 5 decimals 2.

data : num1 type p value 2 decimals 2,

div type p decimals 2, div1 type i.

div = num / num1 .

div1 = floor( div ).

write div1.

Hope it will solve.
