NAME

floor − floor function

SYNOPSIS

cc [ flag ... ] file ... −lm [ library ... ]

#include <math.h>

double floor(double x);

DESCRIPTION

The floor() function computes the largest integral value not greater than x.

RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion, floor() returns the largest integral value not greater than x, expressed as a double. 

If x is NaN, NaN is returned. 

If x is ±Inf or ±0, x is returned. 

ERRORS

No errors will occur. 

USAGE

The integral value returned by floor() as a double might not be expressible as an int or long int.  The return value should be tested before assigning it to an integer type to avoid the undefined results of an integer overflow.
