<p>new: info, truncation</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>&#039;&#039;&#039;Truncation&#039;&#039;&#039; is a form of [[rounding]] where the result is always [[Floor rounding|floored]]. This essentially means that the non-[[integer]] (decimal) part of a [[Floating point|float]] is &#039;chopped off&#039; (truncated).<br /> <br /> == Examples ==<br /> Below some [[floating point]] numbers are shown, as well as the [[Integer|integers]] they round to when &#039;&#039;&#039;truncated&#039;&#039;&#039;:<br /> 1.2 -&gt; 1<br /> 7.9 -&gt; 7<br /> 8.0 -&gt; 8<br /> 9.9 -&gt; 9<br /> -3.4 -&gt; -3<br /> -7.8 -&gt; -7</div>
