You can use mod to round a decimal number down to the nearest whole number. For example: If you wanted to use the command random to generate a whole number between 0 and 5, you could put this in a script:

In A1, the new commands [[round]], [[floor]] or [[ceil]] would be the easier way to round.

  • Remainder is calculated in real domain.
  • mod is identical to a % b
You can use mod to round a decimal number down to the nearest whole number. For example: If you wanted to use the command random to generate a whole number between 0 and 5, you could put this in a script:
_rand = random 6; _num = _rand - (_rand mod 1);
In A1, the new commands round, floor or ceil would be the easier way to round.
