Numbers have types: int vs float

Every value has a type, and the type decides what an operator does. Nowhere is that clearer than division: Python has two division operators, and they give you different numbers — and different types. Watch the average come out whole or fractional.

Find the average of total = 7 shared between count = 2 (we want 3.5).

What you are looking at

Watch avg, and notice whether it lands as a whole int or a fractional float.

Buggy — avg = total // count uses floor division: 7 // 2 = 3, an int. The half is gone — wrong for an average.
Procedural — avg = total / count uses true division: 7 / 2 = 3.5, a float. A single slash keeps the fraction. Same numbers, different operator, different type.

Every state you see came from running the program under CPython's tracer at build time — see how GlassBox stays honest.
