Parameters

• number: A number with or without units

Discussion

Any value that isn’t already a whole number has the fractional portion removed:

truncate(2.9)
truncate(2.1)
truncate(2.0)
truncate(-2.5)

2
2
2
-2

Percentages work just like regular numbers:

truncate(25.8%)
truncate(83.22%)
truncate(-9.5%)

25%
83%
-9%

truncate also works with units:

truncate(pi radians)
truncate($25.75)
truncate(-5.5 L)

3 rad
$25
-5 L
