AINT

Returns the nearest integer whose magnitude is not larger than the integer value of a specified expression that represents a numerical value.
AINT(x) evaluates to different values under different conditions:
AINT(x) = 0 if ABS(x)< 1
AINT(x) = int(x) if ABS(x)1
The value of the mathematical function AINT of a variable x is equal to x if x is an integer. If x is not an integer, then AINT(x) is equal to the integer nearest to x, whose magnitude is not greater than the magnitude of x.

Format

Argument

 
x
Any valid expression that evaluates to a real number.
