int_ceil(int argc, VALUE* argv, VALUE num)
{
int ndigits;
if (!rb_check_arity(argc, 0, 1)) return num;
ndigits = NUM2INT(argv[0]);
if (ndigits >= 0) {
return num;
}
return rb_int_ceil(num, ndigits);
}
Returns the smallest number greater than or equal to self with a precision of ndigits decimal digits.
When the precision is negative, the returned value is an integer with at least ndigits.abs trailing zeros:
Example
555.ceil(-1) # => 560 555.ceil(-2) # => 600 -555.ceil(-2) # => -500 555.ceil(-3) # => 1000
Returns self when ndigits is zero or positive.
Example
555.ceil # => 555 555.ceil(50) # => 555
