Hello,

I have two variables i and j and they are always positive. j is equal to the result of the division of any positive number with i.

Example: i=15, for a random number 42 j=42/i =2.8 however I want j to be equal to 2.
So, for every division of i with a random positive number, I want j to take the value of the first digit.

Eg. i=15 so for a number=3 the division is j=3/i=0 and not 0.2 as the result is.

ML stores as default doubles not integers.

You can either use floor() or coerce to integers if that's more suitable.
