The '''INT''' function rounds a numeric value down to the next whole number or [[INTEGER]](toward less negative). 


{{PageSyntax}}
:: result = [[INT]](''expression'')


* [[INT]] returns the first whole number that is less than ''expression''.
* This means that [[INT]] rounds down for both positive and negative numbers.
