note 41794 added to function.ceil

IceKarma said: "If you want, say, 2.6 to round to 3, and -2.6 to round to -3, you want round(), which rounds away from zero." That's not always true. round() doesn't work that way, like zomis2k said it just rounds up _or_ down to the nearest non-decimal number. However this should work. <?php function roundaway($num) { if ($num > 0) return ceil($num); elseif ($num < 0) return floor($num); elseif ($num == 0) return 0; } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ceil.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+41794 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+41794&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+41794&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
