INT DAX Function (Math and Trig)
Rounds a number down to the nearest integer.
Syntax
| Parameter | Attributes | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Number |
The number you want to round down to an integer. |
Return values
An integer value of Integer or Currency data type, depending on the argument data type.
Remarks
INT performs a type conversion to an integer and always returns an integer value.
If <Number> is an Integer or a Decimal data type data type, then the result is an Integer data type.
If <Number> is a Currency, then the result is also a Currency data type.
Other rounding functions (such as TRUNC) return a Decimal data type.
INT rounds <Number> towards −∞ to the nearest integer. If <Number> is already an integer, no rounding occurs. This operation is the same as taking the integer part of <Number>, but only when <Number> is non-negative.

Examples
The following examples clarify the behavior of INT with negative and positive numbers.
INT ( - 2.9 ) = -3 INT ( - 2.1 ) = -3 INT ( - 0.9 ) = -1 INT ( - 0.1 ) = -1 INT ( 0.1 ) = 0 INT ( 0.9 ) = 0 INT ( 2.1 ) = 2 INT ( 2.9 ) = 2
-- INT converts any expression in an integer
