> bad argument #2 to 'format' (number has no integer representation) 

I think that this is a difference between lua-5.2 and lua-5.3. 
lua-5.3 seems to require, for example: 
string.format('%d', math.floor(math.pi)) 
Or string.format('%.0f',math.pi).

That will follow different rounding rules, though, so that if you feed it 
math.exp(1), you get '3', not '2'.

Even the format string '%.f' gives the same result in practice, but only '%.0f' 
guarantees the absence of a decimal point according to the specification (see 
man sprintf).
