1-3) Computes the largest integer value not greater than
arg.4) Type-generic macro: If
arg has type long double, floorl is called. Otherwise, if arg has integer type or the type double, floor is called. Otherwise, floorf is called.Parameters
| arg | - | floating-point value |
Return value
If no errors occur, the largest integer value not greater than arg, that is ⌊arg⌋, is returned.
Return value
Argument
Error handling
Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559):
- The current rounding mode has no effect.
- If
argis ±∞, it is returned, unmodified. - If
argis ±0, it is returned, unmodified. - If
argis NaN, NaN is returned.
Notes
FE_INEXACT may be (but isn't required to be) raised when rounding a non-integer finite value.
The largest representable floating-point values are exact integers in all standard floating-point formats, so this function never overflows on its own; however the result may overflow any integer type (including intmax_t), when stored in an integer variable.
Example
Run this code
#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
printf("floor(+2.7) = %+.1f\n", floor(2.7));
printf("floor(-2.7) = %+.1f\n", floor(-2.7));
printf("floor(-0.0) = %+.1f\n", floor(-0.0));
printf("floor(-Inf) = %+f\n", floor(-INFINITY));
}
Possible output:
floor(+2.7) = +2.0
floor(-2.7) = -3.0
floor(-0.0) = -0.0
floor(-Inf) = -inf
