FUNCTION:  Int( )

Implemented in version 1.0
 
Int(Number)
 
The Int function converts a decimal number (floating-point) to an integer number (fix-point).
 
There is one major difference between Int and Fix. Int rounds negative numbers down. Fix rounds negative numbers up.
 
Code:
<% =Int(123.456) %>
 
Output:
123
 
Positive numbers are not rounded up. The decimal point and all digits to the right are effectively chopped off.
 
Code:
<% =Int(123.899) %>
 
Output:
123
 
Negative numbers are rounded down (towards more negative).
 
Code:
<% =Int(-123.456) %>
 
Output:
-124
