  Why don't you just turn off *certain* warnings instead of turning them all
off?

  But yes, I agree that at least the implicit conversions from double to
int should be changed to explicit. This is a good coding habit (it kind of
"comments" the code in such a way that a person reading it will see that
"yes, this conversion is deliberate, not a mistake/overlook").
  Letting the conversions be implicit is bad not only because of the
warnings, but because it makes it more unclear whether a certain implicit
conversion is the desired thing or a mistake.
  Sometimes an implicit conversion from a bigger type to a smaller one
(where information is lost) is indeed a mistake from the part of the coder
and may cause a bug.
