Re: [libreoffice-users] Integer part of a number
Hi :) The best answer in this thread was the first answer, by Rolf Lochbühler. Brian is right as usual but Pertti's answer deals with unexpectedly wrong counts.

Fwd: Re: [libreoffice-users] Integer part of a number
Hi everybody, When I tried to give an answer to Gilles' basic question I proposed my formula based on the reality that I have never experienced negative voting. The very interesting (theoretical) discussion this caused shows that there may be several correct solutions. I can imagine that Gilles (and me too) is curious to know what is the best answer to his problem. Even if I did (I admit) some overthinking I cannot see that my answer is wrong. So, what is the best way for Gilles to continue?

No, your answer was not wrong, but it was unnecessarily complicated - like adding zero to something: not wrong but pointless and confusing. For non-negative C3, =IF(C31;0;INT(C3)) is identical to and no better than =INT(C3). So, what is the best way for Gilles to continue? Using INT(), as was suggested in the very first reply (before any of my comments).

Re: [libreoffice-users] Integer part of a number
could anyone tell me which formula I should use for the integer part of a cell to be shown in another cell, The function you're probably looking for is INT(). Example: A1: 0.77 B1: =INT(A1) → 0 C1: =A1*2 → 1.54 D1: =B1*2 → 0 and for the value of this cell to be changed, since, for example, 5,77 would become equal to 5? I guess I don't understand the restrictions in your spreadsheet. Without knowing any further details of your application, I'd say, why not use the value calculated by INT() instead of the original value in any subsequent operations? -rl -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
