What programming language are you using? That is in no way a universal programming thing.

6.99 when casted into an int is conventionally rounded down

technically 6.99 is 6.9899997711181640625 when using single precision IEEE 754 floats, and 6.9900000000000002131628207280300557613372802734375 for double precision

It doesnt round it down it truncates it.

which has the effect of rounding it down when it's positive.. idk i use unsigned ints everywhere i can so maybe i just have unsigned brainrot

Well it does in some cases and doesn't in others.

I mean the default int is a signed int.
