Returns the integral digits of the specified Decimal; any fractional digits are discarded.

public:
 static System::Decimal Truncate(System::Decimal d);

public:
 static System::Decimal Truncate(System::Decimal d) = System::Numerics::IFloatingPoint<System::Decimal>::Truncate;

public static decimal Truncate (decimal d);

static member Truncate : decimal -> decimal

Public Shared Function Truncate (d As Decimal) As Decimal

Parameters

d: Decimal

The decimal number to truncate.

Returns

Decimal

The result of d rounded toward zero, to the nearest whole number.

Implements

Truncate(TSelf)

Examples

The following code example uses the Truncate method to discard the fractional digits of several Decimal values.

// Example of the Decimal::Negate, Decimal::Floor, and 
// Decimal::Truncate methods. 
using namespace System;

// Display Decimal parameters and the method results.

   Console::WriteLine( dataFmt, "Decimal Argument", Argument );
   Console::WriteLine( dataFmt, "Decimal::Negate( Argument )", Decimal::Negate( Argument ) );
   Console::WriteLine( dataFmt, "Decimal::Floor( Argument )", Decimal::Floor( Argument ) );
   Console::WriteLine( dataFmt, "Decimal::Truncate( Argument )", Decimal::Truncate( Argument ) );
}

int main()

Remarks

This method rounds d toward zero, to the nearest whole number, which corresponds to discarding any digits after the decimal point.
