float_int

Convert an XFL floating point into an integer (floor)

Concepts

• Floating Point Numbers (XFL)

Behaviour

• Left shift (multiply by 10) the XFL by the number of specified decimal places

• Convert the resulting XFL to an integer, discarding any remainder

• Return the integer

Definition

C

int64_t float_int (
    int64_t float1,
    uint32_t decimal_places,
  	uint32_t absolute
);

Example

C

int64_t drops =
    float_int(xrpbalance, 6, 0);

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
float1	int64_t	An XFL floating point enclosing number representing the first operand to the addition
decimal_places	uint32_t	The number of places to shift the decimal to the right before computing the floor of the floating point.
absolute	uint32_t	If 1 also take the absolute of the value before returning it.

📘Hint

Negative return values are reserved for error codes. Therefore if you need to execute this function against a negative XFL you should use absolute = 1

Return Code

Type	Description
int64_t	The computed positive integer If negative, an error: INVALID_FLOAT - one of the supplied parameters was not a valid XFL enclosing number INVALID_ARGUMENT - attempted to specify more than 15 decimal places. CANT_RETURN_NEGATIVE - attempted to return a negative integer but this is not allowed, use absolute = 1
