Round down

  Hey,

  Is there a simple way to return the integer value or round a value down? I cannot seem to find anything in the documentation, but please direct me if I have missed it!

  Thanks,

  David

  Hey,

  No, this does not work – you can see in the examples it takes 2.8 up to 3.0. I need to round down 2.8 down to 2.

  I dont see a rounddown function in the documentation. Is there some integerPortion() or roundDown() function I am missing?

  Thanks,

  David

  To ALWAYS round down you have to subtract 0.4 from any number, while adding 0.9 ALWAYS rounds up.

  Edit:

  To ALWAYS round down you have to subtract 0.5 from any number, while adding 0.4 ALWAYS rounds up.

  Sorry, I am on my mobile and couldn’t check the correct values.

  Yes, already was a solution posted in this thread. I was more so looking for documentation or pointing out that there should be some for this functionality.

  Thanks though,

  David

  I agree … like under Help / ProBuilder Language Documentation ?

  I’ll add Roberto code to the Snippet Library also as row 77.

  Should 0.4 or o.5 be subtracted . If a number is 1.999 and I want this to round down then I need to subtract 0.5 otherwise if I subtract 0.4 giving 1.599 which ROUND (1.499)=2

  I want to use this to calculate a contract size using STATEGYPROFIT

  New instructions CEIL and FLOOR make all the above snippets obsolete.
