Common error in C programming. Similarly, your explorations regarding integer
division (which results in INTEGERS, rounded or truncated , I never remember
which 'cuz when I want resiults from division, I want the floating point
answer about 99.99996% of the time! :) are also common misunderstandings.

Practice and learning the differences, enough to make them second nature.
