How does it work in the search window?

Select Create column in the search window toolbar, then select the Floor operation. You need to specify one argument:

The data type of the values in the new column is integer or float, depending on the selected input data.

Example

In the my.upload.sample.data table, we want to round down all the numbers in the decimals_float column. To do it, we will create a new column using the Floor operation.

The arguments needed to create the new column are:

• Number to round - decimals_float column

Click Create column and you will see the following result:

How does it work in LINQ?

Use the operator select... as...  and add the operation syntax to create the new column. This is the syntax for the Floor operation:

• floor(number)

Example

You can copy the following LINQ script and try the above example on the my.upload.sample.data table. 

from my.upload.sample.data
select split(message, ";", 16) as decimals
select float(decimals) as decimals_float
select floor(decimals_float) as decimals_floor
