Original description:

Steps to reproduce:
1. Run this piece of code inside flash / flex

var score:uint = 0;
var totalTests:uint = 1000;
for(var i:uint=0;i<totalTests;i++){
var p:Number = Math.random() * 10;
if(p.toFixed(0).indexOf(".") != -1) score++;
}
trace ((score * 100) / totalTests);
 
 Actual Results:

Returns a percentage or bad returns from toFixed around 8 to 11 percent.
 
 
 Expected Results:

Number.toFixed(0) should return ints
 
 
 Workaround (if any):
 
 Casting it to int sometimes changes the values (toFixed returns a String). So we are doing a validation of the returned value and if it contains a "." dot we strip it out.
