Description
The floor function rounds a number down to the next lowest integer. The operation is equivalent to dividing the number by one and discarding the remainder. 2.3 would be rounded down to 2; 5/3 would be rounded down to 1; -2.3 would be rounded down to -3. The optional second input specifies a divisor. If it is present and not nil, the first input is divided by the second and floor is applied to the result.
floor will not work on a list; to do this, use the om// function with the divisor set to 1.
