Type conversion of float to int is done by using Using int() function or using math module methods math.floor() and math.ceil().

Example convert float to int Python

Simple example code.

Using int() Function

This method is prone to data loss and hence isn’t recommended.

float_1 = 1.1
float_2 = 1.5
float_3 = 1.9

print(int(float_1))

print(int(float_2))

print(int(float_3))

Convert float to int Python

Using the math module

You have to import the math module for this example.

math.ceil: returns the smallest integer value that is greater than or equal to the argument.

math.floor: Returns the largest integer less than or equal to the argument.

import math

float_1 = 1.1
float_2 = 2.5
float_3 = 3.9

print(math.floor(float_1))
print(math.ceil(float_1))

print(math.floor(float_2))
print(math.ceil(float_2))

print(math.floor(float_3))
print(math.ceil(float_3))

Output:

2
