The most efficient way is to go to URL http://www.adahome.com/rm95/
which is the Ada 95 Reference Manual which points you to the URL:

    http://www.adahome.com/rm95/rm9x-A-05-03.html

which defines the floor attribute which works like this:

   y:=x'floor;      -- Postcondition: Y is now the whole-number of X
   f:=x'fraction;   -- Postcondition: F is now the fractional value of X
