The fld function returns the largest integer that is less than or equal to the division of x by y.
In the first example, fld(10, 3) returns 3 because 10/3 is 3.333..., and the largest integer less than or equal to 3.333... is 3.
Similarly, fld(7, 2) returns 3 because 7/2 is 3.5, and the largest integer less than or equal to 3.5 is 3.
In the case of negative numbers, fld(-10, 3) returns -4 because -10/3 is -3.333..., and the largest integer less than or equal to -3.333... is -4.
