# tixGetInt(3)

Get the integer value of a string.

## NAME

tixGetInt - Get the integer value of a string.

## SYNOPSIS

**tixGetInt** *?-nocomplain? ?-trunc? string*

## DESCRIPTION

The command **tixGetInt** converts any number into an integer number. By default, it will round the number to the nearest integer. When the **-trunc** option is specified, the number is truncated instead of rounded.

When the string is not a valid TCL numerical value and the **-nocomplain** option is specified, **tixGetInt** will return "0". Otherwise it will generate an error.
