Integer

The integers (from the Latin integer, which means with untouched integrity, whole, entire) are the set of numbers consisting of the natural numbers including 0 (0, 1, 2, 3, ...) and their negatives.

Not an integer, but still tasty

tl;dr: You can use Integers to save whole numbers. Inserting a float value like 0.5 will result in 0 when stored as an integer. Rounding and floor/ceiling instances will vary. Check with your local integer provider for moar options.

Integers can be over 9000, but not bigger than 2^63. Using Integers the wrong way can result in bugs in software. Using MAX_INT can be used to fuck up bad websites.

Note: Sometimes integers can be bad. For instance, trying to round pi to three could result in not a circle, but a tightly-wound spiral.

Examples of Float to Integer conversion:

Number	Result	Comment
Over 9000	Over 9000	Great power level, but don't use as a power of a number bigger than 1.
15.9	15	But she was almost 16.
15.9	16	16 in the state of Florida for great justice
13.0	49	That's not a 13-year old you are chatting with
17.9	17	childporn? But she was almost 18.
17.9	18	childporn? It looks like an adults vagina, so it's not CP
1/2	0	Dividing primes is a bad idea.
1/0	Oh shi-	You can't divide by zero you idiot.
