Definition df-fl 13932
Description: Define the floor (greatest integer less than or equal to) function. See flval 13934 for its value, fllelt 13937 for its basic property, and flcl 13935 for its closure. For example, (⌊‘(3 / 2)) = 1 while (⌊‘ -(3 / 2)) = -2 (ex-fl 31048).

The term "floor" was coined by Ken Iverson. He also invented a mathematical notation for floor, consisting of an L-shaped left bracket and its reflection as a right bracket. In APL, the left-bracket alone is used, and we borrow this idea. (Thanks to Paul Chapman for this information.) (Contributed by NM, 14-Nov-2004.)
