Cast float to int in OCaml

How am I supposed to cast a float to an integer in OCaml?

I know how to get a float from an int, but there doesn't seem to be an easy way to get an int from a float.

Solution 
  • # int_of_float ;;
- : float -> int = <fun>

    I assume you want a nearby int (this rounds towards zero, same as C does).

    If you want the IEEE representation, see Int64.bits_of_float.
