Conversion From Unity JS to C# - Cannot implicitly convert type `float' to `int'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)

Question

I'm trying to convert Unity JS

function LoadLastSavedSelection() { var strIDs : String[] = EditorPrefs.GetString("SelectedIDs").Split(char.Parse(";"));

 var ids : int[] = new int[strIDs.Length];
 for(var i = 0; i &lt; strIDs.Length; i++)
 ids[i] = parseInt(strIDs[i]);
 Selection.instanceIDs = ids;

}

into C#. And below my last converted that still have some errors.

void LoadLastSavedSelection (){ string[] strIDs = EditorPrefs.GetString("SelectedIDs").Split(char.Parse(";"));

     int[] ids = new int[strIDs.Length];
     for(float i = 0; i &lt; strIDs.Length; i++)
     ids[i] = int.Parse(strIDs[i]);
     Selection.instanceIDs = ids;
 }

Errors code that I get

(308,43): error CS0266: Cannot implicitly convert type float' toint'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)

(308,21): error CS0266: Cannot implicitly convert type float' toint'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)

Line 308 is

        ids[i] = int.Parse(strIDs[i]);

Can anyone help me solve the conversion so I don't have some errors. Thank in advance!

its because i is declared as a float in the for loop. Array indexes need to be integers, so the line should read:

for(int i = 0; i < strIDs.Length; i++)

Yes, my fault! I have some floats o other code before that make me forget about 'culprit' float at current code. Great help, Thank!
