To convert an integer to a float in Python you can use the following:

float_version = float(int_version)

The reason you are getting 0 is that Python 2 returns an integer if the mathematical operation (here a division) is between two integers. So while the division of 144 by 314 is 0.45~~~, Python converts this to integer and returns just the 0 by eliminating all numbers after the decimal point.

Alternatively you can convert one of the numbers in any operation to a float since an operation between a float and an integer would return a float. In your case you could write float(144)/314 or 144/float(314). Another, less generic code, is to say 144.0/314. Here 144.0 is a float so it’s the same thing.

Other than John s answer  you could also make one of the variable float  and the result will yield float    gt  gt  gt  144   314 0 0 4585987261146497

You can literally convert it into float using    float value   float integer value     Likewise  you can convert an integer back to float datatype with    integer value   int float value     Hope it helped  I advice you to read  Build-In Functions of Python  at this link  https   docs python org 2 library functions html

In Python 3 this is the default behavior  but if you aren t using that you can import division like so    gt  gt  gt  from   future   import division  gt  gt  gt  144 314 0 4585987261146497   Alternatively you can cast one of the variables to a float when doing your division which will do the same thing  sum   144 women onboard   314 proportion womenclass3 survived   sum   float np size women onboard
