The division operator (/) divides its first operand by its second. All numeric types have predefined division operators.

expr1 / expr2

Where:

expr1

An expression.

expr2

Remarks

User-defined types can overload the / operator (see operator).

Example

// cs_operator_division.cs
using System;
class Test 
{
   public static void Main() 
   {
      Console.WriteLine(-5/2);
      Console.WriteLine(-5.0/2);
   }
}

Output

-2
-2.5
