Kotlin Program to Multiply Two Floating-Point Numbers
In this article, we will understand how to multiply two floating-point numbers. A floating-point number, is a positive or negative whole number with a decimal point. There are two types of floating point in Kotlin
- Float
- Double
Below is a demonstration of the same −
Suppose our input is
val1: 10.5 val2: 45.0
The desired output would be
The product is: 472.5
Algorithm
Step 1 − Start
Step 2 − Declare three floating points: val1, val2 and product
Step 3 − Define the floating-point values
Step 4 − Read the values
Step 5 − Multiply the two values using a multiplication operator (*)
Step 6 − Display the result
Step 7 − Stop
Example 1
In this example, we will multiply two floating-point numbers using the multiplication arithmetic operator
fun main() { val val1 = 10.5f val val2 = 45.0f println("The first value is defined as: $val1") println("The second value is defined as: $val2") val product = val1 * val2 println("The product is: $product") }
Output
The first value is defined as: 10.5 The second value is defined as: 45.0 The product is: 472.5
Example 2
In this example, we will multiply two floating-point numbers:
fun product(val1 : Float, val2 : Float){ val product = val1 * val2 println("The product is: $product") } fun main() { val val1 = 12.5f val val2 = 40.0f println("The first value is defined as: $val1") println("The second value is defined as: $val2") product(val1, val2) }
Output
The first value is defined as: 12.5 The second value is defined as: 40.0 The product is: 500.0
Example 3
In this example, we will multiply two floating-point numbers (Double) using the multiplication arithmetic operator
fun main() { val val1 = 12.0 val val2 = 23.5 println("The first value is defined as: $val1") println("The second value is defined as: $val2") val product = val1 * val2 println("
The product is: $product") }
Output
The first value is defined as: 12.0 The second value is defined as: 23.5 The product is: 282.0
