Round towards Zero Primitive

Status: New
by Knight of NI ‎01-19-2010 03:48 PM - edited ‎01-19-2010 03:53 PM

We have a Round towards -Infinity  (3.8 becomes 3,  -3.8 becomes -4)

We have a Round towards +Infinity (3.2 becomes 4, -3.2 becomes 3)

We have a Round to Nearest (Rounds up or down to nearest integer, if 0.5, banker's rounding to even integer)

 

Why is there no Round towards Zero?  Basically a truncate.  (3.2 becomes 3, -3.2 becomes -3)

I have a use for that right now, but it takes several primitives to work. 

 

As a corollary, a Round Away from Zero.  (3.2 becomes 4, -3.2 becomes -4)

Not as pretty as a regular primitive, but the expression node supports a function that does what you need, intrz(x)
