# trunc10 > Round a numeric value to the nearest power of 10 toward zero.
## Usage ```javascript var trunc10 = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/trunc10' ); ``` #### trunc10( x ) Rounds a `numeric` value to the nearest power of 10 toward zero. ```javascript var v = trunc10( -4.2 ); // returns -1.0 v = trunc10( -4.5 ); // returns -1.0 v = trunc10( -4.6 ); // returns -1.0 v = trunc10( 9.99999 ); // returns 1.0 v = trunc10( 9.5 ); // returns 1.0 v = trunc10( 13.0 ); // returns 10.0 v = trunc10( -13.0 ); // returns -10.0 v = trunc10( 0.0 ); // returns 0.0 v = trunc10( -0.0 ); // returns -0.0 v = trunc10( Infinity ); // returns Infinity v = trunc10( -Infinity ); // returns -Infinity v = trunc10( NaN ); // returns NaN ```
## Notes - The function may not return accurate results for subnormals due to a general loss in precision. ```javascript var v = trunc10( 1.0e-323 ); // should return 1.0e-323 // returns 0.0 ```
## Examples ```javascript var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' ); var trunc10 = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/trunc10' ); var x; var v; var i; for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) { x = (randu()*100.0) - 50.0; v = trunc10( x ); console.log( 'Value: %d. Rounded: %d.', x, v ); } ```
