FLOOR.PRECISE function

PRO

The FLOOR.PRECISE function in Jspreadsheet Formulas Pro is a handy tool that lets you round a number downward. You can choose to round it to the closest whole number or to a specific multiple you define. Simply put, it helps to simplify numbers by reducing them to their nearest significant value, either as whole numbers or specific multiples. This is particularly useful when you want to maintain numerical consistency or simplicity in your data.

Documentation

Rounds a number down to the nearest integer or to the nearest multiple of a specified factor, based on a specified significance.

Syntax

FLOOR.PRECISE(number, [significance])

Parameter	Description
`number`	The number that you want to round down.
`[significance]`	Optional. The significance of the rounding. Default is 1.

Behavior

The FLOOR.PRECISE function rounds a number down toward negative infinity to the nearest multiple of a given significance. Here's how it handles various inputs:

Numbers: The function works smoothly with numerical inputs.
Empty Cells: If a cell reference in the formula is empty, the function treats it as zero.
Text: If the function encounters text where it expects a number, it will return a #VALUE! error.
Booleans: Boolean values are treated as 1 for TRUE and 0 for FALSE.
Errors: If any cell reference in the formula contains an error, the FLOOR.PRECISE function will propagate that error.

Common Errors

Error	Description
#VALUE!	This error is displayed when the function encounters non-numeric data where it expects a number.
#NUM!	This error occurs if invalid numeric arguments are supplied in a way that prevents calculation, such as non-finite numbers.
#DIV/0!	This error is displayed when the function attempts to divide by zero.

Best practices

Always ensure that the data you're working with in the FLOOR.PRECISE function is numerical, to avoid #VALUE! errors.

Be careful with cell references to avoid accidental references to cells with error values, as this will cause the function to propagate the error.

Use absolute cell references where necessary to maintain the correct cell references when copying the formula across cells.

While using FLOOR.PRECISE, remember that it always rounds down toward negative infinity, regardless of the number's sign. For control over rounding direction, consider FLOOR.MATH.

Usage

A few examples using the FLOOR.PRECISE function.

FLOOR.PRECISE(24.3) returns 24  
FLOOR.PRECISE(6.8, 2) returns 6  
FLOOR.PRECISE(-8.1, 0.1) returns -8.1  
FLOOR.PRECISE(-5.7, 2) returns -6
