Round a value towards minus infinity. If x is complex, both real and imaginary part are rounded towards minus infinity. For matrices, the function is evaluated element wise.
## Syntax
```js
math.floor(x)
```
### Parameters
Parameter | Type | Description
--------- | ---- | -----------
`x` | Number | BigNumber | Boolean | Complex | Array | Matrix | Number to be rounded
### Returns
Type | Description
---- | -----------
Number | BigNumber | Complex | Array | Matrix | Rounded value
## Examples
```js
var math = mathjs();
math.floor(3.2); // returns Number 3
math.floor(3.8); // returns Number 3
math.floor(-4.2); // returns Number -5
math.floor(-4.7); // returns Number -5
var c = math.complex(3.2, -2.7);
math.floor(c); // returns Complex 3 - 3i
math.floor([3.2, 3.8, -4.7]); // returns Array [3, 3, -5]
