Division in Java always results in zero (0)?

Question

The function below gets two values from sharedpreferences, weight and height, and I use these to calculate the BMI, When I print the content of the values I get the values i have entered in the sharedprefs ( which is good) but then when i run a division operation on them, I always get 0 as a result.. Where is the error?

public int computeBMI(){
    SharedPreferences customSharedPreference = getSharedPreferences(
            "myCustomSharedPrefs", Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);

    String Height = customSharedPreference.getString("heightpref", "");
    String Weight = customSharedPreference.getString("weightpref", "");

    int weight = Integer.parseInt(Weight);
    int height = Integer.parseInt(Height);
    Toast.makeText(CalculationsActivity.this, Height+" "+ Weight , Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

    int bmi = weight/(height*height);
    return bmi;

}

You're doing integer division.

You need to cast one operand to double.
