NAME¶

trunc, truncf, truncl - round to integer, toward zero

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <math.h>

double trunc(double x);
float truncf(float x);
long double truncl(long double x);

Link with -lm.

trunc(), truncf(), truncl():

DESCRIPTION¶

These functions round x to the nearest integer value that is not larger in magnitude than x.

RETURN VALUE¶

These functions return the rounded integer value, in floating format.

If x is integral, infinite, or NaN, x itself is returned.

ERRORS¶

No errors occur.

VERSIONS¶

These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.

ATTRIBUTES¶

For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).

CONFORMING TO¶

C99, POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008.

NOTES¶

The integral value returned by these functions may be too large to store in an integer type (int, long, etc.). To avoid an overflow, which will produce undefined results, an application should perform a range check on the returned value before assigning it to an integer type.
