Java Ugly Rounding Error?

Question

Using series.add(180, 1); produces a perfectly valid chart like this (little red dot at the bottom with some PolarItemRenderer Mods!)

but using series.add(3000/(6000/360), 1); produces this beast:

I assume it's because somewhere, 6000/360 = 16.6... is getting rounded? How can I stop this happening? Thanks :)

Answer 1

You are using integer division. 3000/(6000/360) = 3000 / 16 = 187. I don't know what you are trying to achieve, but use doubles instead of integers if you don't want the integer division.

Answer 2

Now realising that this was a bit of a stupid question! This was how I did it (maybe not the best way, but it works!)

double doub= ((double)6000)/((double)360);

series.add(6000/doub, 1);
