Martin Møller Skarbiniks Pedersen, Use a RoundUp function for n / d. For example,
// n / d rounded up func RoundUp(n, d int64) int64 { if d == 0 { return 0 } return (n + (d - 1)) / d } https://play.golang.org/p/kEMJ04ggkMc Peter On Tuesday, August 4, 2020 at 6:37:06 AM UTC-4, Martin Møller Skarbiniks Pedersen wrote: > > On Sun, Aug 2, 2020 at 2:09 PM Martin Møller Skarbiniks Pedersen < >> traxp...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> I have written my first little piece of Go-code. >>> However it took some time and code for me to divide a int64 by 4 and >>> round down. >>> >>> [...] >>> var bet int64 >>> bet = int64(math.Ceil(float64(cash)/float64(4))) >>> >>> > On Sunday, 2 August 2020 23:25:23 UTC+2, Kurtis Rader wrote: >> >> In addition to Jake's question regarding whether you want to round up or >> down I'll point out there isn't any to cast to float64 and back to int64. >> If you want to "round down" just divide by four.
