Number
The number to be rounded.
Significance
The multiple to which the input number should be rounded. If omitted, it is assumed to be 1.
Mode
0 If the number should be rounded towards zero and 1 if the number should be rounded away from zero. If omitted, it is assumed to be 0.
Returns
The rounded number.
Returns a number rounded up to the nearest multiple of another number. CEILING.MATH (22) CEILING.MATH (22) returns 22, but CEILING.MATH (22.1) CEILING.MATH (22,1) returns 23.
If a significance is not specified, it is assumed to be 1, meaning that the returned value is an integer. CEILING.MATH (22.1, 5) CEILING.MATH (22,1; 5) returns 25, because 25 is the nearest multiple of 5 that 22.1 can be rounded up to.
Negative numbers are rounded towards zero by default. That means that CEILING.MATH ( - 22.1, 5) CEILING.MATH ( - 22,1; 5) returns -20, not -25. The third parameter may be used to customize this behavior. CEILING.MATH ( - 22.1, 5, 1) CEILING.MATH ( - 22,1; 5; 1) returns -25, not -20.
Examples
Returns 22, assuming a significance of 1.
Returns 23, assuming a significance of 1.
Returns 23, with the significance given as the second parameter.
Returns 25, with the significance given as the second parameter.
Returns -20, because negative numbers are rounded toward zero by default.
Returns -25, because the third parameter is set to a value that causes negative numbers to be rounded away from zero.
Returns the array { 22, 23 }{ 22; 23 }.
Returns the array { 22, 23 }{ 22; 23 }.
Returns the array { 25, 25 }{ 25; 25 }.
Returns the array { 25, 23 }{ 25; 23 }. 22 uses a significance of 5 and 22.1 uses a significance of 1.
