CEILING(3I)					       Last changed: 1-6-98

NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     CEILING - Returns the least integer greater than or equal to its
     argument

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     CEILING ([A=]a)

IMPLEMENTATION    [Toc]    [Back]

     UNICOS, UNICOS/mk,	and IRIX systems

STANDARDS    [Toc]    [Back]

     Fortran 90

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The CEILING intrinsic function returns the	least integer greater than
     or	equal to its argument.	It accepts the following argument:

     a	  Must be of type real

     CEILING is	an elemental function.	The name of this intrinsic cannot
     be	passed as an argument.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

     On	UNICOS systems,	both execution speed and the number of bits used in
     mathematical operations are affected when compiling with
     f90 -O fastint, which is the default setting.  For	more information on
     this, see the CF90	Commands and Directives	Reference Manual,
     publication SR-3901.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

     The result	type is	a default integer.  The	result has a value equal to
     the least integer greater than or equal to	a.  The	result is undefined
     if	the system cannot represent this value in the default integer type.

EXAMPLES    [Toc]    [Back]

     CEILING(3.7) has the value	4.  CEILING(-3.7) has the value	-3.
