400/360 is NOT 1.0

I'm trying to make a graph to try out different equations and ways to plot them.
I'm ploting sine through 360 degrees and so to fit the graph on the page i do (hieght/360)*i and The graph falls short. I try printing it and get integers. So I print (400/360);
1.0
What?
I try this on the desktop calculator and I get 1.11111++. I try making a float and printing that.
1.0
I'm assuming it's a syntax thing. Is it Processing or me?

try this:
Code:
or this:
Code:
The output for both is 1.1111112
You can use (double) if you want greater accuracy

venner is right, i just want to clarify his answer
p5 will use the lowest accuracy given so
int/int=int
int/float=float
float/int=float
float/float=float
float/double=double
double/float=double
ect
