It just throws the decimal point away and that's because, again, these are ints and the answer intuitively should be a floating point value, but I need to be more specific.

它直接把小数点后面的数值丢弃掉了，因为，凭直觉，那些整型数和结果应该是一个浮点数据,但是我需要一个更精确的数值。

So what that means is the compiler is actually going to first "cast" so to speak 13 from whatever it is - to a float -- to a floating point value -- and then perform the division for us.

所以这里的意思是编译器将,做“计算“，譬如13这样一个浮点数,-到另一个浮点数-,然后为我们处理除法。
