Math.floor with negative numbers

hi there....
System.out.println(Math.floor(-2.1));
what do you think the answer is?
-3.0 that's what.
i thought it rounded towards zero...i guess it does with positive numbers, but the point is that .floor gets the lowest whole number... so therefore it must be -3.0 ... silly little things like that must be watched for on the exam eh.

You are correct.
Think about 'floor', which is always lower than you, regardless negative or positive.

a funny thing about Math.ceil:
Math.ceil(-0.5) is -0.0 and not 0.0 !
