CEILING.PRECISE

CEILING.PRECISE

Description

Rounds a number up to a multiple of significance. The function doesn't consider the number's sign. The function rounds positive numbers up, and also rounds negative numbers up (toward zero, becoming less negative).

Syntax

CEILING.PRECISE(
value
, [
significance
])
  • value
    : The number to round up.
  • significance
    : The multiple of significance to round the number up to. If you omit the argument, the function uses the value 1, which causes the function to round the number up to the next larger integer.

Example

Formula
Result
=CEILING.PRECISE(12.34)

=CEILING.PRECISE(12.34,1)
13
=CEILING.PRECISE(-12.34,1)
-12
=CEILING.PRECISE(12.34,0.1)
12.4

Notes

  • This function does the same action as ISO.CEILING() and ISOCEILING().
