Convert a double to and integer

[jdhigh2]

I need to convert a double to an integer. I have some some information on-line about how to do this, but nothing that is step-by-step enough to figure it out.
I am working on PID control for a line follower bot.
I have calculated my motor power control value as a double.
Now I need to convert it to an integer for use in: MotorA.setPower(PowerA);

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John

Try this

Code: Select all

MotorA.setPower((int)PowerA);

All you have to do is cast the double to int. Example:

Code: Select all

      double x = 5.43212345;
      int i = (int)x;
      System.out.println(""+i);

Or

Code: Select all

      double x = 5.43212345;
      int i = (int)Math.round(x);
      System.out.println(""+i);

Or you can use the Math.round(float a) method that returns a rounded int in case you are interested in that.
You will have to cast the double as a float in the round's constructor like this.

double i = 5.72;
int p = Math.round((float)i);
