CEIL(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual CEIL(3P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
ceil, ceilf, ceill — ceiling value function
#include <math.h>
double ceil(double x);
float ceilf(float x);
long double ceill(long double x);
The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with
the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described
here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of
POSIX.1‐2008 defers to the ISO C standard.
These functions shall compute the smallest integral value not less
than x.
The result shall have the same sign as x.
Upon successful completion, ceil(), ceilf(), and ceill() shall return
the smallest integral value not less than x, expressed as a type
double, float, or long double, respectively.
If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.
If x is ±0 or ±Inf, x shall be returned.
No errors are defined.
The following sections are informative.
None.
The integral value returned by these functions need not be
expressible as an intmax_t. The return value should be tested before
assigning it to an integer type to avoid the undefined results of an
integer overflow.
These functions may raise the inexact floating-point exception if the
result differs in value from the argument.
None.
None.
