Raymond Hettinger added the comment: It would be nice in the docstring the definition of "truncate" wasn't assumed. It would be more specific to say that it rounds towards zero or that it is ceil(x) for negatives and floor(x) for positives. Alternatively, state that it returns the integer portion of a Real. The word "truncate" in the docstring is close to being a circular definition -- if you don't know what math.trunc() does, being told it truncates isn't especially informative.
