trunc¶

trunc(x, out=None, **kwargs)¶

Return the truncated value of the input, element-wise. The truncated value of the scalar x is the nearest integer i which is closer to zero than x is. In short, the fractional part of the signed number x is discarded.

Parameters:

x : ndarray or scalar: Input data.
out : ndarray or None, optional: A location into which the result is stored.

Returns:

y : ndarray or scalar: The truncated value of each element in x. This is a scalar if x is a scalar.
Notes

This function differs from the original numpy.trunc in the following aspects:

Do not support where, a parameter in numpy which indicates where to calculate.
Cannot cast type automatically. Dtype of out must be same as the expected one.
Cannot broadcast automatically. Shape of out must be same as the expected one.
If x is plain python numeric, the result won’t be stored in out.

Examples

>>> a = np.array([-1.7, -1.5, -0.2, 0.2, 1.5, 1.7, 2.0])
>>> np.trunc(a)
array([-1., -1., -0.,  0.,  1.,  1.,  2.])
