[Solved] Identify the error in this Kotlin code snippet and choose the correct fix: val a: Int = 5 val b: Double = a println(b) | Kotlin

Kotlin - Data Types

Identify the error in this Kotlin code snippet and choose the correct fix:

val a: Int = 5
val b: Double = a
println(b)

AChange <code>val b: Double = a</code> to <code>val b: Double = a.toDouble()</code>

BChange <code>val a: Int = 5</code> to <code>val a: Double = 5</code>

CAdd explicit cast: <code>val b: Double = a as Double</code>

DNo error, code runs fine

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand Kotlin's type conversion rules
Kotlin does not allow implicit conversion from Int to Double, so val b: Double = a causes a compilation error.
Step 2: Apply explicit conversion to fix the error
Using a.toDouble() explicitly converts Int to Double, fixing the error.
Final Answer:
Change val b: Double = a to val b: Double = a.toDouble() -> Option A
Quick Check:
Explicit conversion needed for Int to Double [OK]

Quick Trick: Use toDouble() to convert Int to Double explicitly [OK]
