Floor: floor

Syntax

floor ( op )

Input parameters

op	the operand

Examples of valid syntaxes

floor ( DS_1 )
floor ( 3.14159 )

Semantics for scalar operations

The operator floor returns the greatest integer which is smaller than or equal to op. For example:

floor( 3.1415 ) gives 3
floor( 15 ) gives 15
floor( -3.1415 ) gives -4
floor( -0.1415 ) gives -1

Input parameters type

op

dataset { measure<number> _+ }
| component<number>
| number

Result type

result

dataset { measure<integer> _+ }
| component<integer>
| integer

Additional Constraints

None.

Behaviour

The operator has the behaviour of the “Operators applicable on one Scalar Value or Data Set or Data Set Component” (see the section “Typical behaviours of the ML Operators”).
