## FIX Round Towards Zero

Section: Mathematical Functions

### Usage

Rounds the argument array towards zero. The syntax for its use is

       y = fix(x)

where `x` is a numeric array. For positive elements of `x`, the output is the largest integer smaller than `x`. For negative elements of `x` the output is the smallest integer larger than `x`. For complex `x`, the operation is applied seperately to the real and imaginary parts.

### Example

Here is a simple example of the `fix` operation on some values

    --> a = [-1.8,pi,8,-pi,-0.001,2.3+0.3i]
    a =
      <dcomplex>  - size: [1 6]

    Columns 1 to 1
     -1.800000000000000 0.000000000000000i

    Columns 2 to 2
      3.141592653589793 0.000000000000000i

    Columns 3 to 3
      8.000000000000000 0.000000000000000i

    Columns 4 to 4
     -3.141592653589793 0.000000000000000i

    Columns 5 to 5
     -0.001000000000000 0.000000000000000i

    Columns 6 to 6
      2.300000000000000+ 0.300000000000000i
    --> fix(a)
    ans =
      <dcomplex>  - size: [1 6]

    Columns 1 to 6
      -1  0i    3  0i    8  0i   -3  0i    0  0i    2  0i
