TRUNCATE

truncate​

description​

Syntax​

DOUBLE truncate(DOUBLE x, INT d)

Numerically truncate x according to the number of decimal places d.

The rules are as follows:

If d is literal:
When d > 0: keep d decimal places of x
When d = 0: remove the fractional part of x and keep only the integer part
When d < 0: Remove the fractional part of x, and replace the integer part with the number 0 according to the number of digits specified by d

Else if d is a column, and x has Decimal type, scale of result Decimal will always be same with input Decimal.
