## General
|
|
|
|
- [Numbers tutorial][numbers].

|
|
|
## 1. Calculate the success rate
|
|
|
|
- Determining the success rate can be done through a [conditional statement][if-statement].
|
|
|
|
## 2. Calculate the production rate per second
|
|
|
|
- Use the `AssemblyLine.SuccessRate()` method you wrote earlier to determine the success rate.
|
|
- C# allows for multiplication to be applied to two different number types (such as an `int` and a `double`). It will automatically return the "largest" data type.
|
|
- Numbers can be compared using the built-in [comparison-][comparison-operators] and [equality operators][equality-operators].
|
|
|
|
## 3. Calculate the number of working items produced per second
|
|
|
|
- Whereas an `int` can be automatically converted to a `double`, the reverse does not hold. The reason for this is that an `int` has less precision than a `double` so rounding has to be applied, also the range of numbers an `int` can represent is smaller than a `double`. To force this conversion, one can either use one of the [`Convert` class' methods][convert-class] or [cast to an int][cast-int].
