One note about the example I used:

>The solutions should be
>Sqrt[Cos[Pi x]^2] Tan[Pi x] + 2 Floor[x + 1/2]

The function Floor[x + 1/2] has no meaning  for complex x!

So I should say for real x.

In[304]:=
(Sqrt[Cos[Pi*x]^2]*Tan[Pi*x] + 2*Floor[x + 1/2] /. x -> #1 & ) /@
Range[10]
Out[304]=
{2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20}
