C: Casting an int array to a double array?

radiospan

Is it possible to convert an int array to a double array?

I have written a function which accepts an array of doubles as an argument.

Most of the time I will be passing an array of doubles to it, but in one location in my program, I need to pass an array of ints to it.

I've tried casting the array to a double array, but no luck.

Is there a way of doing this? I might be doing it wrong.

I suppose I could always use a for loop to cast each individual array element to a double, and then put those doubles into a new array...

A for loop does seem like the best way to do it...

Yep, that did it, thanks.

for( i= 0; i<= 7; i++ ) {
				doublebytes[i] = double(bytes[i]);
			}

why would you not handle it as a double always?
or, at least pass it as an unadulterated array to the function and let the function cast the necessary elements to ints inside it if it still needs to play with ints??
but yeah, you basically can't cast an array of things at once
