The L Function: Floor,
Minimum
Monadic (One-Argument) Form:
Floor
LB
The
floor
function
result
is
the
next
integer smaller
than
the
argument
(the argument
is
rounded
down) unless
the
argument
is
already an integer.
In
this case,
the
result
is
the
same as
the
argument.
The
argument
can be a numeric scalar, vector,
or
other
array.
The
shape
of
the
result
is
the
same as
that
of
the
argument:
3 "'3
LI.I·
If
the
argument
is
an array,
the
function
is
extended
to
each
of
the
elements:
1 1
:1.

Note: The result
of
the
floor
function
depends on
the
OCT system variable (see
Chapter 5 for information
on
the
OCT system variable).
Dyadic (Two-Argument) Form:
Minimum
ALB
The
minimum
function
result
is
the
smaller
of
the
arguments.
The
arguments can be
numeric scalars, vectors,
or
other
arrays.
The
arguments
must
be
the
same shape un-
less
one
of
the
a~guments
is
a scalar
or
any single-element array. Arguments
of
the
same shape have
the
same shape result:
