I was merely proposing to use a way where the compiler could keep type 
checking.  Another way would be to use a little bit of templates to keep 
type checking working, however, I'm not sure how to trigger a compiler 
warning/error when the number is out of range.  So you could just return 0.


template <float f> inline int func() {
   if (f <= 1.0 && f >= 0)
        return static_cast<int>(f*1000.0);
   else
        return 0;
}

template <int i> inline int func() {
   if (i <=  1000 && i >= 0)
       return i;
   else
       return 0;
}
