floor helper

Tom Santiago
Updated

Use {{floor}} to round a numeric value down to the nearest whole integer. This helper finds the largest integer less than or equal to the given number.

Usage

{{floor field}}

  • field: A numeric or string-parsable numeric value (e.g., 3.14, "45.25", record.total).

Examples

  1. Hard-coded number 

    {{floor 22.44}}

    Outputs 22.

  2. Record field 

    {{floor record.total}}

    If record.total is 45.25, the result is 45.

  3. String literal 

    {{floor "3.14"}}

    Returns 3.

Tip

  • Negative values go “down” away from zero (e.g., -2.8 becomes -3).

  • Confirm the input is numeric (or convertible to a number). Non-numeric strings could produce unexpected results.

  • Use {{ceil}} if you need the opposite behavior (rounding up).
