Convert elements of argument x to integer. This function is implemented in two versions. The result is always of the same type as the argument x.

Note: The values of x must be in the range of a 32bit signed integer!

Usage 1

int(x)

Result 1: Has the same type as x, but the elements are converted to integer. The fractional part is truncated.

Usage 2

int(x, flag)

x: a scalar, vector or matrix
flag: selects if the values are truncated (flag≠1) or rounded (flag=1); flag must be a scalar

Result 2: Has the same type as x, but the elements are rounded or truncated according to the value of flag.
