NAME

trunc() — truncation function

SYNOPSIS

#include <math.h>

double trunc(double x);

DESCRIPTION

trunc() rounds its argument to the integral value, in floating-point format, nearest to but no larger in magnitude than the argument.

The ISO/ANSI C committee has approved the trunc() function for inclusion in the C9X draft standard.

To use this function, compile either with the default -Ae option or with the -Aa and -D_HPUX_SOURCE options. Make sure your program includes <math.h>. Link in the math library by specifying -lm on the compiler or linker command line.

RETURN VALUE

The trunc() function returns the truncated integral value.
