Java Trouble --> Float to Int

[FunkyChicken]

Hi guys,

i need to convert a float value to an integer (basically i want to have a final value with no decimal places). I will need this value to allways be rounded down, i.e.

12.34 = 12
43.98 = 43
0.12 = 0
ect....... (all rounded down)

How would i do this in Java? I'm using JBuilder but i'm having really bad problems with it, especially considering sometimes i get a value without decimal places.

If anyone could help i would be much appreciative.

Thanks in advance

Why not just cast the float/double into an int?

especially considering sometimes i get a value without decimal places.

Yes, I believe that is usually the case with integers...

im not sure on what this "cast" means, i guess i will have to try and look in up somwhere, many thanks.

P.s. If i cant find a resolution will you be able to help a little more by giving me some serach terms, thankyou

cheers

just so you guys know i aint being lazy, i have tried these 2 but both fail:

float LeftOver = 3.567;
int test = LeftOver.intValue();

and

float LeftOver = 3.567;
int test = LeftOver;

neither work!

[FunkyChicken]

int   TestInteger;
float TestFloat = 3.8644;

TestInteger = (int) TestFloat;
string Output = "" + TestInteger;

at last it bloody works, the good thing about it is that it simply chops off the decimal places rather than rounding up or down.

round()......
