Yes, the term is "cast". 

No you didn't need to cast 299 to a float. It's not wrong to do so, just 
unnecessary. (And, if you care, you could instead just write 299.0, or 299f, or 
299.0f.) 

You could also just use if( x >= 300 ).

If you were using fractional pixels anywhere, you'd want x = 0 instead of x = 
x-300, so that rounding errors would not accumulate.
