TRUNC(3)                      Linux Programmer's Manual                      TRUNC(3)

NAME         top

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

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <math.h>

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

       Link with -lm.

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       trunc(), truncf(), truncl():
           _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600 || _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L;
           or cc -std=c99

DESCRIPTION         top

       These functions round x to the nearest integer not larger in absolute value.

RETURN VALUE         top

       These functions return the rounded integer value.

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

ERRORS         top

       No errors occur.

VERSIONS         top

       These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.

CONFORMING TO         top

       C99, POSIX.1-2001.

NOTES         top

       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.
