       These functions return the largest integral value that is not greater than x.

       For example, floor(0.5) is 0.0, and floor(-0.5) is -1.0.

       No errors occur.

       C99, POSIX.1-2001.

       The variant returning double also conforms to SVr4, 4.3BSD, C89.

       SUSv2  and  POSIX.1-2001  contain  text  about  overflow  (which  might  set errno to ERANGE, or raise an
       FE_OVERFLOW exception).  In practice, the result cannot overflow on any current machine, so  this  error-
       handling  stuff  was  just nonsense.  (More precisely, overflow can happen only when the maximum value of
       the exponent is smaller than the number of mantissa bits.  For the IEEE-754 standard  32-bit  and  64-bit
       floating-point  numbers  the maximum value of the exponent is 127 (respectively, 1023), and the number of
       mantissa bits including the implicit bit is 24 (respectively, 53).)  This was removed in POSIX.1-2008.

       Math library (libm, -lm)

       floor, floorf, floorl - largest integral value not greater than argument

       These functions return the floor of x.

       If x is integral, +0, -0, NaN, or an infinity, x itself is returned.
