Thanks for all the work you have put into this software!

I was wondering if you could make a function to round the value up. So round 2.2 up to 3. Or a function to round down or round to nearest 5... etc. Would be helpful when I am calculating the required number of items required and get 2.2 back, I need it to be 3 when I cannot have a partial item.

Thanks!

How can maths invent that 2.2 could be/should be 5 ?
From the fx menu, scroll down to Ceil and plug your 2.2 in ... = 3
You could probably square the circle for 2.2 => 5

Hello Destory,

Apart from the Ceil function, you can write your own function for this, i have made an example for you:


you can edit the function (extra if loop) if you want it to handle negative numbers differently.
