Rounding mode to round towards zero. Never increments the digit prior to a discarded fraction (i.e., truncates). Note that this rounding mode never increases the magnitude of the calculated value.
<p>Example: <table border> <caption><b>Rounding mode DOWN Examples</b></caption> <tr valign=top><th>Input Number</th> <th>Input rounded to one digit<br> with {@code DOWN} rounding <tr align=right><td>5.5</td> <td>5</td> <tr align=right><td>2.5</td> <td>2</td> <tr align=right><td>1.6</td> <td>1</td> <tr align=right><td>1.1</td> <td>1</td> <tr align=right><td>1.0</td> <td>1</td> <tr align=right><td>-1.0</td> <td>-1</td> <tr align=right><td>-1.1</td> <td>-1</td> <tr align=right><td>-1.6</td> <td>-1</td> <tr align=right><td>-2.5</td> <td>-2</td> <tr align=right><td>-5.5</td> <td>-5</td> </table>
