Default function to find if a number is whole

Does anyone know of a function to determine if a number is a whole integer
and not a decimal place?

I want to target a cell (that has a sum value in it) and create an if
statement if it's a whole number or not.

Assume A1 has number in it

=if( INT(a1)=a1, True, False)

=MOD(A1,1)=0

Returns TRUE or FALSE

Unless I am dense, neither of these replies worked.

A1 value is 4.00 on my sheet is that my problem?

<A1 value is 4.00

It probably isn't; 4.00 is what it shows, not what the value is. Format A1 as General and widen the column to its maximum. What do
you see?

If the value is 4.0 and displayed as 4.00 - no problem
if on the other hand the value is 4.001 and formated to show 2 decimal
places then yes it's correct

modify the formula to this

=if( abs(int(a1)-a1)<0.000001, true, false)

You can *alter the accuracy* by altering the 0.000001
