Returns the integer part of a number.

Syntax

Fix ( numExpr )

Elements

numExpr

Any numeric expression.

Fix returns the value of its argument with the fractional part removed. The data type of the return value is determined by the data type of numExpr. The following table shows special cases.

The Fix function rounds toward 0:

• For a positive argument, Fix returns the nearest integer less than or equal to the argument (if the argument is between 0 and 1, Fix returns 0).
• For a negative argument, Fix returns the nearest integer larger than or equal to the argument (if the argument is between 0 and -1, Fix returns 0).

Tip It is always true that Fix(numExpr) + fraction(numExpr) = numExpr.
