Hi,

I want to remove the values after decimal places. For ex -

13.265 should become 13

-12.514 should become -12

Regards,

Nikunj

Use the integer function: Truncated_Variabel=Int(Variable);

Well, you need to round the value.  There are several options:

floor(value) = takes the minimum e.g. 13.265 becomes 13

ceil(value) = takes the maximum e.g 13.265 becomes 14

Then ther's the round() function:

There are many other functions for working with numbers (int() is another).
