Explain ceil(x) in python.



Answer -

ceil(x)
Description : The method ceil( ) returns ceiling value of x-the smallest integer not less than x.
Syntax:
Following is the syntax for ceil()
method import math
math.ceil(x)
Note: This function is not accessible directly so we need to import math module and then we need to call this function using math static object.
Parameters : x—This is a numeric expression.
Return Value : This method returns smallest integer not less than x.
Example:

# !/usr/bin/py thon
import math # This will import math module
print “math.ceil(-45.17):”,
math.ceil(-45.17)
print “math.ceil(100.12):”,
math.ceil(100.12)
print “math.ceil(100.72):”,
math.ceil(100.72)
print “math.ceil(119L):”,
math.ceil(119L)
print “math.ceil(math.pi):”,
math.ceil(math.pi),
This will produce the following result
math.ceil(-45.17) :-45.0
math.ceil(100.12): 101.0
math.ceil(100.72): 101.0
math.ceil(119L): 119.0
math.ceil(math.pi): 4.0
