Dialect support

This example using jOOQ:

trunc(1.7)

Translates to the following dialect specific expressions:

CASE
  WHEN sign(1.7E0) >= 0 THEN (floor((1.7E0 * 1)) / 1)
  ELSE (ceiling((1.7E0 * 1)) / 1)
END

truncate(CAST(1.7E0 AS decimal), 0)

CAST(trunc(
  CAST(1.7E0 AS numeric),
  0
) AS double precision)

trunc(CAST(1.7E0 AS double), 0)

CASE
  WHEN sign(1.7E0) >= 0 THEN (floor((1.7E0 * 1)) / 1)
  ELSE (ceil((1.7E0 * 1)) / 1)
END

trunc(CAST(1.7E0 AS double precision), 0)

truncate(CAST(1.7E0 AS double), 0)

round(1.7E0, 0, round_down)

trunc(1.7E0, 0)

truncate(1.7E0, 0)

round(CAST(1.7E0 AS float), 0, 1)

truncnum(1.7E0, 0)
