>>>(1) There is a confusion in the compiler whether to convert (_CurrentPageIndex / _PageButtonCount) to double or to decimal, since floor can take both double and decimal

>>>(2) the result is an expression of type double or decimal. Assigning that to an int results in a loss of precision. The compiler does not do that for you. Hence you have to cast it to an int

Yep!
