Returns the specified integer number without rounding.
$int(N)
- N is the number with decimals you want to handle.
Note
The difference between $int and $floor is only visible with negative numbers. For example:
$floor(5.6) ;returns 5 $int(5.6) ;returns 5 $floor(-5.6) ;returns -6 $int(-5.6) ;returns -5
Examples
$int($pi) ;will return 3 $int(9312412.3213) ;will return 9312412
var %i = 2.5 $calc(%i - $int(%i)) ;will return 0.5 $calc(%i % 1) ;will also return 0.5
The above example shows how to return the remainder from a decimal number.
