Hi Here is the code that has the problem when I put it into my 18F4550... void main() { char temp_string[10]; int temp_int; float temp_float; UART1_Init(9600); UART1_Write(0xFE); //LCD home UART1_Write(0x51); UART1_Write(0xFE); //LCD contrast UART1_Write(0x52); UART1_Write(0x1E); do { for ( temp_int...

Hi I tried to turn an int to a float using temp_float = temp_int; for some numbers this worked fine, but for the majority it gives errors. eg. 0 - 10 works fine 11 comes out as 10.99991 12 comes out as 11.99991 etc however 15,16,20 (plus several other seemingly random numbers) work fine. Could anyon...
