conversion error

[dallaseve]

Hi, how do I get rid of a conversion from double to float warning??

Thanks

typecast it

float n = 123.45F;

double x = (double)n;

or
double x = static_cast<double>(n);

hi thanks, I tried that but I'm obviously not implimenting it properly. I'll go back and maybe create another variable to see if that fixes my problem....otherwise I'll post. I know I have to type cast, I just don't understand the logic yet, so struggling a bit...BRB.

		for (p = randLink.begin(); p != randLink.end(); p++)
		{
			sum = sum + *p;
			count = count + 1;
		}
			average = static_cast<double>(sum/count);
		//average = sum/count;
		//double sum = double average;
			cout <<"The sum is equal to:  " << sum << endl;
			cout <<"The average is equal to:  " << average << endl;

}

Can you please help me to understand? Thanks
