NAME¶

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

LIBRARY¶

Math library (libm, -lm)

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <math.h>

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

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

    _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L

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.

ATTRIBUTES¶

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

STANDARDS¶

C11, POSIX.1-2008.

HISTORY¶

glibc 2.1. C99, POSIX.1-2001.

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.
