to_s => string click to toggle source

Returns a string containing a representation of self. As well as a fixed or exponential form of the number, the call may return “NaN'', “Infinity'', and “-Infinity''.

Returns flt truncated to an Integer.

zero? → true or false click to toggle source

Returns true if flt is 0.0.
