>Add "trun()" function to Python to truncate decimal part.

	You'll have to define what specific behavior you think is missing from
the currently available functions?

>>> plusover = 2.78
>>> plusunder = 3.14
>>> minusover = -2.78
>>> minusunder = -3.14
>>> import math
>>> for v in (plusover, plusunder, minusover, minusunder):
... 	print("%s: int %s, round %s, math.trunc %s, math.floor %s,
math.ceil %s"
... 		% (v, int(v), round(v), math.trunc(v), math.floor(v),
math.ceil(v)))
... 		
2.78: int 2, round 3, math.trunc 2, math.floor 2, math.ceil 3
3.14: int 3, round 3, math.trunc 3, math.floor 3, math.ceil 4
-2.78: int -2, round -3, math.trunc -2, math.floor -3, math.ceil -2
-3.14: int -3, round -3, math.trunc -3, math.floor -4, math.ceil -3
>>> 

	int() and .trunc() move toward 0, .floor() moves to less positive,
.ceil() moves to more positive.
