Cannot implicitly convert type 'double' to 'int'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)

i'm using the code below to find a threshold value of white pixels so that i can distinguish white pixel's from "whiter" ones.Any ideas on how to improve the code above to avoid the error I'm getting?

Color  colorValue=image.GetPixel(x,y);
       var averageValue = ((int)colorValue.R + (int)colorValue.B + (int)colorValue.G)/3; // get the average for black and white
      int  threshold=averageValue * 0.9;

you are multiplying with .9 so you can't convert to int
may be you can try this
int threshold = Convert.ToInt16(averageValue * 0.9);

other way to convert .9 to int and that will result 1 that may effect your output more than the above code

the value of threshhold should be integer or can be any other value?
If it can be like double than use
var threshold = averageValue * 0.9;

I "think" i need it as integer because i need to put it's value on a vector and find the max value of it.I used the convertion like @vipinjoshi said and that error is gone but Im getting another convertion error when I use the vector, This f*cking C# -_-

Solution 3

yes you can
dynamic array c#......[^]

List<double> list = new List<double>();
list.Add(12);
list.Add(12);
Console.WriteLine(list[1]);

if it work please mark are solution or rate the solution

thanks for pointing out my mistake Matt :)

Solution 1

C#

double averageValue = ((double)colorValue.R + (double)colorValue.B + (double)colorValue.G)/3d; // get the average for black and white
      int  threshold=(int)(averageValue * 0.9d);

THNK u, thats nice it worked, One last question:
i passed threshold value to a matrix element like this:
thresholdvec[x][y]=threshold;
And it says: "Use of unassigned local variable 'thresholdvec' " how is that even possible ?!!!

VC.J 3-Oct-14 8:04am

thresholdvec[x][y] is the array that you have declared am I right ?
and x and y are integer type

Member 11117703 3-Oct-14 8:09am

I've declared it at the beginning of the function like this
double [] thresholdvec;
and x, y are part of the for loops that iterate through every pixel on a photo, So there shouldn't be any kind of error. right ?

Member 11117703 3-Oct-14 8:10am

its
double [][] thresholdvec; i forgot to type the second brackets, still the error stays...

VC.J 3-Oct-14 8:12am

declare like this

double[] thresholdvec= new double[6];
here 6 is array lengh
for 2 d array as in your case
double[,] names = new double[5, 4];

Member 11117703 3-Oct-14 8:17am

that worked,thank u, but isn't there any way to make it a dynamic vector, because i dont know it's size,and setting up a large number for size takes up memory space and processing speed
