Which field type to enter a page number?

Hey guys,

Which field type should I use to enter page numbers for each of my table listings? I want to be able to do some calculations on them later e.g. average page number for 10 rows of book listings. I tried using the number (#) field type but it adds an unnecessary decimal place. So for example a page number entered as 350 changes to 350.0.

I was going to use the single line text field but wondered if that would prevent me running calculations later on.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help.

Use a number field, but change the formatting from decimal to integer.
