floorf Function

Calculates the floor of a single precision floating-point value.

Include

<math.h>

Prototype

float floorf(float x);

Argument

x

floating-point value for which to return the floor

Return Value

Returns the largest integer value less than or equal to x.

Remarks

No domain or range error will occur. See ceilf.

Example

#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
  float x[8] = {2.0F, 1.75F, 1.5F, 1.25F, 
                -2.0F, -1.75F, -1.5F, -1.25F};
  float y;
  int i;

  for (i=0; i<8; i++)
  {
    y = floorf (x[i]);
    printf("The floor for  %f is  %f\n", x[i], y);
  }
}

Example Output

The floor for  2.000000 is  2.000000
The floor for  1.750000 is  1.000000
The floor for  1.500000 is  1.000000
The floor for  1.250000 is  1.000000
The floor for  -2.000000 is  -2.000000
The floor for  -1.750000 is  -2.000000
The floor for  -1.500000 is  -2.000000
The floor for  -1.250000 is  -2.000000
