# 
## Parameter

This function requires a number to round down as a parameter.

##
## Return value

`floor()` returns the largest number that is less than or equal to a number set as a parameter.

#Positive number
a <- floor(10);
print(paste0("floor(10): ", a))

b <- floor(5.3);
print(paste0("floor(5.3): ", b))

#negative number 
c <- floor(-10);
print(paste0("floor(-10): ", c))

d <- floor(-5.3);
print(paste0("floor(-5.3): ", d))
