float       floorf( float arg );
(since C99)
double      floor( double arg );
long double floorl( long double arg );
(since C99)

Computes nearest integer not greater than arg.

Contents

[edit] Parameters

arg - floating point value

[edit] Return value

Nearest integer not greater than arg

[edit] Notes

The integer value can be always represented by the given floating point type.

[edit] Example

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
 
void report_floorf(float f) {
	printf("floorf(%5.2f)=%5.2f\n",f,floorf(f));
} /* end report_floorf() */
 
void demo_floorf() {
	report_floorf(9.1f);
	report_floorf(-9.1f);
	report_floorf(0.0f);
} /* end demo_floorf() */

Output:

floorf( 9.10)= 9.00
floorf(-9.10)=-10.00
floorf( 0.00)= 0.00
