cant find it anymore :( float2integer

i know its out there somewhere but i cant find it no more

how to convert a float to an integer?

i know there was somewhere a page that explained them all but i believe it was on the old wiki

tnx

Just cast it...

float f = 1.2;
integer i = (integer)f;

That method loses information. I think what he is referring to is Strife's float<->integer casting functions, which pretty much take the bits in the float and put the same bits in the same places in an integer. Basically reading the float AS an integer, rather than converting (and truncating) TO an integer.

The code I think you are looking for is on his Wiki user page:

If close is all you are after ...

Take Sindy's example and add a little bit of rounding.
IIRC, casting is just like truncating or simply dropping the fractional portion.
So (integer)1.2 == (integer)1.9
This is easy to fix.

integer Float2Int (float f){
return ((integer)(f+0.5);
}
.....
integer nSomeVar = Float2Int(fSomeFloat);

Most of the time, I only need to go from float to Int for user output, in which case his works fine.

o.0

float ourFloat = 1.5;

if you want to ignore the fractional part
(integer)ourFloat

if you want to round to the nearest integer
llRound( ourFloat )

if you want to always round down (same as ignoring it if it's positive)
llFloor( ourFloat )

if you want to always round up
llCeil( ourFloat )

tnx ppl now i know where to find it again
