In Java, I want to convert a double to an integer, I know if you do this:
double x = 1.5;
int y = (int)x;
you get y=1. If you do this:
int y = (int)Math.round(x);
You'll likely get 2. However, I am wondering: since double representations of integers sometimes look like 1.9999999998 or something, is there a possibility that casting a double created via Math.round() will still result in a truncated down number, rather than the rounded number we are looking for (i.e.: 1 instead of 2 in the code as represented) ?
(and yes, I do mean it as such: Is there any value for x, where y will show a result that is a truncated rather than a rounded representation of x?)
If so: Is there a better way to make a double into a rounded int without running the risk of truncation?
Figured something: Math.round(x) returns a long, not a double. Hence: it is impossible for Math.round() to return a number looking like 3.9999998. Therefore, int(Math.round()) will never need to truncate anything and will always work.

No, round() will always round your double to the correct value, and then, it will be cast to an long which will truncate any decimal places. But after rounding, there will not be any fractional parts remaining.
Here are the docs from Math.round(double):
Returns the closest long to the argument. The result is rounded to an integer by adding 1/2, taking the floor of the result, and casting the result to type long. In other words, the result is equal to the value of the expression: (long)Math.floor(a + 0.5d)
For the datatype Double to int, you can use the following:
Double double = 5.00;
int integer = double.intValue();
Double perValue = 96.57;
int roundVal= (int) Math.round(perValue);

[max double: 1.7976931348623157E308]to int which is much much smaller[max int: 2147483647]. Just something to keep in mind.
