Hi,



I'm currently working on the various FLOOR functions (all Calc and Excel
variations) and I struggle with this phrase in
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part2.html#__RefHeading__1018610_715980110
:



"If mode is given and not equal to zero, the absolute value of N is rounded
__away from zero__ to a multiple of the absolute value of significance and
then the sign applied ."



That sounds to me as CEILING behaviour, not FLOOR.



Is my interpretation wrong, is there an error in the standard?

What should the behaviour be to have FLOOR comply with ODFF1.2?


It can be a copy&paste error. I filed a bug:
https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/OFFICE-3885
We'll discuss this on the next OASIS ODF TC meeting (1st of June),
unless until then someone proves that the current text is correct.

Thanks,
Andras
