Re: Math.ceil()...lingo style

[Mathew Ray]

Hmm, I seem to remember adding (or subtracting) .5 and using integer to 
round it off, I remember correctly....

Floor:
integer(4.25 - .5) = 4
integer(4.75 - .5) = 4
Ceil:
integer(4.25 + .5) = 5
integer(4.75 + .5) = 5

Hi all...

I want to automatically convert a float to the next highest integer.
Flash has the Math.ceil() method, so what's the most efficient way to do
this in Lingo?
I appreciate any responses, and have a superb day.

Thanks,
Michael M.
