Ceiling:

The "ceiling" of a number is the smallest integer greater than or equal to the number. Every integer is its own

1)

Example: 14.9

Ceil(14.9)=15

2)

Example: 14

Ceil(14)=14

Floor:

The "floor" of a number is the largest integer less than or equal to the number. Every integer is its own floor.

1)

Example: 14.9

Floor(14.9)=14

2)

Example: 14

Ceil(14)=14

Hi,

If you want to use these functions in message mapping you will get it in Math functions.

Ceil(19.4) = 20

Floor(19.4) = 19

The meaning is itself in the word Floor means down Ceil means top or high. its easy to remember also.

Reward points if needful.

Dear Akhil,

These are the functions available in message mapping window.

Here is the functionality of these functions

Floor: Returns Largest Initial Value That is Not greater than the argument and is Equal to a mathematical Integer

For Ex:

If input value is 12.65

If you use Floor function on that value then the result will be 12.

Becasue It will truncate all the values and give the integer value which is not greater than the argument.

Ceil: Returns the smallest( closest to negative) int value that is not less than the argument and also is equal to a mathematical interger.

For ex:

If the input value is 12.65

if you apply the ceil function on this value the resultant will be 13

consider general understanding of a building: Ceiling, and Floor

they are derived from the same terminology.

Hi,

Floor will round the value to next lowest integer below number.

Ceil will round the value to the next highest integer.
