Int
Value = Int ( Number )
Returns the mathematical integer part of
Number, i.e. the greatest integer which is less than
Number.
Example
PRINT Int(Pi)
PRINT Int(-Pi)

-4

The behaviour of Int and Fix are the same for positive number, and are different for negative numbers.
|
' Example illustrate the use of Int function to truncate to whole number.
' See also Cint function ( for similar example).
PRINT Int(3.2)
PRINT Int(3.9)
PRINT Int(6)
PRINT Int(-7.2)
PRINT Int(-7.9)

The
Value is not limited to the
Integer size (32 bits) nor to the
Long size (64 bits). It may be
Float.
PRINT Int(2e60), CInt(2e60)
2E+60 -2147483648
The next example shows how Int() works on a
Boolean variable.
The difference between Int() and
CInt() is:
- Int() may return a Float value, CInt() is limited to 32 bit Integer.
- Int() rounds to the next lower value. i.e. -4.6 to -5, while CInt rounds toward 0 i.e. -4.6 to -4
