trunc |
Function (ROM Call 0xBC) |
Converts floating point to integer.
trunc truncates floating point argument x to the long integer result. Returns
zero in a case of overflow.
This routine performs the same operation as casting a floating point value
to an int type using '(int)'
, '(unsigned int)'
and
'(long)'
typecast operators,
but it is kept here to allow compatibility with older programs created before
TIGCC introduced floating point operators (i.e. before release 0.9 of TIGCC).
This function is automatically called when any function which needs an integer is called with
a floating point arguments, to force a truncation of a floating point value to
an integer. Also, you can do assignments like b = a;
when a is a floating point variable (or expression) and b is an
integer variable. In both cases, trunc will be called automatically
to perform the truncation.
At the fundamental level, trunc is exactly the same routine as
bcdlong.
