st: Integer values in Stata

Dear all,
I have a list of values in a column in Stata like so:
end
.2
.4
.6
.8
1
1.2
1.4
1.6
1.8
2
2.2
2.4
2.6
2.8
3
3.2
3.4
3.6
3.8
4
4.2
4.4
4.6
4.8
5
and I wish to only keep the whole number value i.e. 1,2,3,4,5 etc. and drop any non integer values. I there use the following code
keep if int(end)
however, I still end up with the following values
end
1
1.2
1.4
1.6
1.8
2
2.2
2.4
2.6
2.8
3
3.2
3.4
3.6
3.8
4
4.2
4.4
4.6
4.8
5
How do I ensure I only keep the whole numbers? Using the following would not be ideal (keep if inlist(end, 1,2,3,4,5)) as I may have a much longer list.
Best wishes
Tim
