You need either floor() or fix() . The two differ in their handling of negative values. floor(-8.7) would be -9, and fix(-8.7) would be -8

An integer already IS a natural number.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_number
So, WOW! You already did what you wanted.
If you are seeing multiple zeros AFTER the decimal place reported, then your number is not in fact an integer. Actually, you must have some floating point trash in there, that causes MATLAB to show those zeros.
N = 1 + eps
N =
1.000000000000000
As you can see, MATLAB knows that it is not really exactly 1. It reports all those sparse zeros, because MATLAB see trash out there past the digits that it reports.
N == 1
ans =
0
Now lets use round.
N = round(N)
N =
1
So, now N really, truly is an integer, a natural number. MATLAB knows that, and displays it with no trailing zeros.
N == 1
ans =
1
