Convert Float to Int in Swift

Question

I want to convert a Float to an Int in Swift. Basic casting like this does not work because these types are not primitives, unlike float

Answer 1

You can convert Float to Int in Swift like this:

var myIntValue:Int = Int(myFloatValue)
println "My value is \(myIntValue)"

You can also achieve this result with @paulm's comment:

var myIntValue = Int(myFloatValue)
