Trunc operator overload

Project: Fractions

Unit: DelphiDabbler.Lib.Fractions

Record: TFraction

Applies to: ~>0.1

class operator Trunc(const F: TFraction): Int64;

Description

The operator overload enables the Trunc “operator” or compiler function to operate on a TFraction. The operator truncates the fraction to the nearest whole number in the direction of zero.

Example

var
  F: TFraction;
begin
  F := TFraction.Create(17, 3);
  Assert(Trunc(F) = 5);
  F := TFraction.Create(-58, 7);
  Assert(Trunc(F) = -8);
  F := TFraction.Create(3, 1);
  Assert(Trunc(F) = 3);
  F := TFraction.Create(-3, 1);
  Assert(Trunc(F) = -3);
  F := TFraction.Create(0, 1);
  Assert(Trunc(F) = 0);
end;
