Hello there!

I need to remove decimal points from numbers. For eg 1.23 or 1.77
would be just 1. Any suggestion is appreciated. Thank you.


perldoc -f int
   int EXPR
   int     Returns the integer portion of EXPR. If EXPR is omitted, uses
           $_. You should not use this function for rounding: one because
           it truncates towards 0, and two because machine representations
           of floating point numbers can sometimes produce counterintuitive
           results. For example, "int(-6.725/0.025)" produces -268 rather
           than the correct -269; that's because it's really more like
           -268.99999999999994315658 instead. Usually, the "sprintf",
           "printf", or the "POSIX::floor" and "POSIX::ceil" functions will
           serve you better than will int().
