Integer/Integer gives 0, but Integer/(float)Integer works?

Interesting, I just noted a case I have where Integer/Integer gives 0, but Integer/(float)Integer works? Specifically:

llCeil(llStringLength(message) / (float)dataLen)
==> WORKS (as I want it to)
==> lslint.exe reports this as an error "ERROR:: (164, 46): Invalid operator: integer / float"

llCeil(llStringLength(message) / dataLen)
==> gives 0 (not what I wanted)
==> lslint.exe reports no errors in this case

Is this expected operations? Seems to imply LL and lslint at the minimum aren't aligned? (I'll post this to the lslint thread too)

Cheers

integer/integer will do integer division. For example, 3/4 will be 0, and llCeil(0) is 0. integer/float will do float division, so 3/4.0 will be 0.75, and llCeil(0.75) will be 1.

However as a contradiction to this, I've recently attempted the following code snippet:

float number = 1 / (float)message;

And though message (a string) was 1234, the result was 0. <shrugs>

I just stick a (float) in front of everything if I expect a non-integer answer.

(Well, everything that isn't already a float)
