# These are the dimentions of our triangle.
base = 12
height = 16

# The formula specified by the assignment was this:
#
## area = 1/2 * base * height
#
# However, Python uses integer division if both numbers are integers. Basically,
# that means that:
#
## 1 / 2 == 0
#
# It&apos;s the same as if you used this:
#
## math.floor(1.0 / 2.0)
#
# We could modify the formula to use floating-point decimals instead of
# integers, but that that would have the unintended effect of causing our
# printed value to be a floating-point decimal. In many cases, that would be the
# correct behaviour, but our answer is an integer. We might as well keep it as
# an integer. Instead of changing the formula, we could also use:
#
## from __future__ import division
#
# Again though, this would have the effect of changing our printed integer into
# a floating-point decimal.
area = base * height / 2

# If we&apos;d acquired a floating-point answer instead of an integer answer, we&apos;d
# see &quot;.0&quot; appended to the answer when we printed it.
print area
