Float to Integer

Discovery

Is there a "C" function that will convert a Floating point number into an Integer for the Propeller?

Hi.

It's built-in for C programming.

int main()
{
  int ipi = 0;
  float fpi = 3.14;

  // type-cast float to int. ipi becomes 3
  ipi = (int) fpi;

  return 0;
}

Thank you...that code works perfectly.

Discovery, (int)fpi will truncate the value to an integer. If you want to round to the nearest integer value you would need to add 0.5 if fpi is positive, or subtract 0.5 if it is negative. I thought I would let you know just in case you wanted to get the nearest integer value.
