Description
These functions round x to the nearest integer value that is not larger in magnitude than x.
Errors
No errors occur.
History
glibc 2.1. C99, POSIX.1-2001.
Library
Math library (libm, -lm)
Name
trunc, truncf, truncl - round to integer, toward zero
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.
Return Value
These functions return the rounded integer value, in floating format.
If x is integral, infinite, or NaN, x itself is returned.
