How do I use Integer columns in wpDataTables?

Integer columns display numeric values without decimals. When non-integer values appear in the source data, they are cast as integers, with non-numerical characters and decimals removed.

“Integer” columns are used when you need to render numeric values that do not contain a decimal. Even, if in the input data source you have non-integer values for this column (not just numbers, or numbers with a decimal), if you define a column as integer, it will cast and render all the values as integers, cut all non-numerical characters, and the decimals as well.

• Rendering rules: none, value is casted as a number as rendered with formatting rule applied (formatting rule can be chosen in the settings page).
• Sorting rules: arithmetical.
• Applicable filter types: text (will also work), number, number range,number range slider, select-box, multi select-box, and checkbox.
• Issues to note: none.

In the example hotel booking table, the “Stars” and “Price” columns are integer columns, showing values such as hotel ratings (1-5) and prices.
