Ok, could do that.  In other programs.
In these two, I'm feeling lazy.
Just got them to work using the "+0.0001" thing.
I admit that the "integer" thing sounds like the technically
better way of doing it.

Hey, at least I didn't name them:

   int a,b,c,d,e,f;

I've known programmers that do that.  In production code,
for mid-sized corporations, no less.  Grrr!

For some reason, Piers Anthony comes to mind.  I see a flock
of birds, each shaped like a small letter c, rising from
the ground in front of me.  I step back, startled, but my
programmer friend beside me says, "don't be alarmed, it's only
a flock of small C-gulls on their way to a Capitalization
Convention".
