floorsd
Round a numeric value to the nearest number toward negative infinity with N significant figures.
Installation
npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-floorsd
Usage
var floorsd = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-floorsd' );
floorsd( x, n[, b] )
Rounds a numeric
value to the nearest number
toward negative infinity with n
significant figures.
var v = floorsd( 3.141592653589793, 5 );
// returns 3.1415
v = floorsd( 3.141592653589793, 1 );
// returns 3.0
v = floorsd( 12368.0, 2 );
// returns 12000.0
The default base is 10
(decimal). To round using a different base, provide a third argument.
var v = floorsd( 0.0313, 2, 2 );
// returns 0.03125
Examples
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-base-randu' );
var floorsd = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-floorsd' );
var x;
var y;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
x = (randu()*10000.0) - 5000.0;
y = floorsd( x, 5 );
console.log( 'x: %d. Rounded: %d.', x, y );
}
