To truncate x to a whole number.
FIX(x)
FIX does not round off numbers, it simply eliminates the decimal point and all characters to the right of the decimal point.
FIX(x) is equivalent to SGN(x)*INT(ABS(x)). The major difference between FIX and INT is that FIX does not return the next lower number for negative x.
FIX is useful in modulus arithmetic.
PRINT FIX(58.75) �58
PRINT FIX(-58.75) �-58
