Syntax:

float java.lang.StrictMath.nextDown(float f)

This method takes one argument of type float as its parameter. This method returns the floating-point value adjacent to f in the direction of negative infinity.

Note:

1. If the argument is NaN, the result is NaN.

2. If the argument is negative infinity, the result is negative infinity.

3. If the argument is zero, the result is -Float.MIN_VALUE

Approach

Java

public class StrictMathnextDownfloat {

        float f = 8818.56f;
        System.out.println(StrictMath.nextDown(f));
    }
}

Output:
