Dividing the smaller by the larger returns zero. How to fix?

Question

C++ / C#

For a long time, of course, I haven’t written in C #, but I haven’t met this one yet. Actually, let's say, if 1 is divided by 7, 0 will be returned as an answer.
For example: Am I doing something wrong, is it a bug in VS, or has the division rules changed?
Console.WriteLine((1 / 7).ToString());

Answer 1

no and no... almost all the words. almost correct ...
but the bottom line is that if both operands are int then the result will be int ...
start with this
or
or
or
or
or
to be sure compare with
... consider why in the last example, the conversion to "floating point" is late ... and there will be a complete understanding , good luck ..
ps
... you can just check everything here - https://dotnetfiddle.net/
... and here I'm sorry)))... in C # it has always been like this (more precisely, in all strongly typed PLs)

Answer 2

Try to deduce this expression into a variable with the type of real numbers (float/double/decimal), then also deduce (with .ToString();). Outputs 0 because it treats them as int(integer) and therefore performs integer division. You can also try to replace, for example, 1 with 1.0, so that the compiler perceives it as a real number

Answer 3

However, I found a very suitable answer myself:Console.WriteLine(((double) 1 / 7).ToString());
