Number.floor()

Number.floor() rounds the source number value of sourceNum down to previous whole integer. This is a dot-operator

See also Number.ceil() and Number.round().

If $MyNumber is 3.9 then:

$MyNumber = $MyNumber.floor(); 

sets $MyNumber to 3. Note unlike normal rounding the value is set downwards to the next integer (i.e. whole number).
