- If the argument is negative infinity, the result is negative infinity.
- If the argument is zero, the result is -Float.MIN_VALUE.
Syntax
public static float nextDown(float f)
Parameters
f |
Specify starting floating-point value. |
Return Value
Returns the floating-point value adjacent to argument in the direction of negative infinity.
Exception
NA.
Example:
In the example below, nextDown() method returns the floating-point value adjacent to argument in the direction of negative infinity.
import java.lang.*; public class MyClass { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println(StrictMath.nextDown(2.55f)); System.out.println(StrictMath.nextDown(10.1f)); } }
The output of the above code will be:
