INT

Applies to: Calculated column Calculated table Measure Visual calculation

Rounds a number down to the nearest integer.

Syntax

INT(<number>)  

Parameters

Term	Definition
number	The number you want to round down to an integer

Return value

A whole number.

Remarks

TRUNC and INT are similar in that both return integers. TRUNC removes the fractional part of the number. INT rounds numbers down to the nearest integer based on the value of the fractional part of the number. INT and TRUNC are different only when using negative numbers: TRUNC(-4.3) returns -4, but INT(-4.3) returns -5 because -5 is the lower number.

Example

The following expression rounds the value to 1. If you use the ROUND function, the result would be 2.

= INT(1.5)
