Ruby Integer truncate() function with example
The truncate() function in Ruby returns an int truncated value to a precision of ndigits decimal digits. When the precision is negative, the returned value is an integer with at least ndigits.abs trailing zeros. It returns itself when ndigits is zero or positive. The default value of ndigits is considered to be zero.
Syntax: number.truncate(ndigits)
Parameter: The function takes the integer which is to be truncated and a non-mandatory ndigits, upto which it has to be truncated.

num2 = 120
ndigits2 = - 2
num3 = - 19
ndigits3 = - 1
num4 = 120
puts num1.truncate(ndigits1)
puts num2.truncate(ndigits2)
puts num3.truncate(ndigits3)
puts num4.truncate
