Create a fi object with default settings. Use the int function to get its stored integer value. The output is an int16 because the input used the default word length of 16-bits.

a = fi(pi);
b = int(a)
b = int16

Create a fi object that uses a 20-bit word length and get the stored integer value of the fi object.

a = fi(pi,1,20);
b = int(a)
b = int32
