The problem I’ve been having

#include <iostream>
using  namespace std;

int main()
{
    cout << "Enter an operator followed by two operands.";
    int val1 = 0;
    int val2 = 0;
    char oper = '+';

    cin >> oper >> val1 >> val2;

    if (oper == '+')
        cout << val1+val2;
    else if (oper == '-')
        cout << val1-val2;
    else if (oper == '*')
        cout << val1*val2;
    else if (oper == '/')
        {
            if (val2 == 0)
                cout << "Division with zero is not possible.";
            else
            {
                double answer = 0;
                answer = val1/val2;
                cout << answer;
            }
        }  
}

Initially I hadn’t defined answer and just tried to output val1/val2, but that didn’t work, so instead I tried defining a variable (float/double) for it but still it gave me an int as an output.
