A follow-up to Tab's posting about Trunc last week. Wouldn't it also be nice to have a RoundDown command? Consider: put -54/55 -- 0 Now, if I'm calculating the slope of a line (which I am), a rise of -54 and a run of 55 looks an awful lot like -1 to me. But not to Director. It rounds up, so negative numbers get clobbered. The only way I can come up with is so kludgy I hate it. put integer(float(-54) / 55) -- -1 This is a case where bitAnd and bitOr won't help, either.
