hai,
trunc is the functions used to truncate all the values after it encounter the decimal point.
eg-1:
trunc(15.9)=ans(15)
trunc(-15.8)= ans(-15).
iam not sure for -ve number but for +ve is correct |

Hi,
e.g. DCL (X,Y) DECIMAL FIXED(3,2);
X = 3.32;
Y = TRUNC(X); /* Y = 3.00 */
X = - 3.32;
Y = TRUNC(X); /* Y = -3.00 */
Note: TRUNC doesn't truncate all the values after it encounter the decimal
point. It only changes the fractional part of an argument to zero.
(It may be +ve or -ve number) |
