When a number as a decimal it is usually a float
in Python.
If you want to remove the decimal and keep it an integer (int
). You can call the int()
method on it like so...
>>> int(2.0)
2
However, int
rounds down so...
>>> int(2.9)
2
If you want to round to the nearest integer you can use round
:
>>> round(2.9)
3.0
>>> round(2.4)
2.0
And then call int()
on that:
>>> int(round(2.9))
3
>>> int(round(2.4))
2
