php128 apg

RETURNS the next HIGHEST integer value by rounding up value if necessary.

Compatible with LOCALE only, up to PHP 7.4.XX.





This function returns the $num rounded up to the next highest INTEGER.

The returned value of this function is still a FLOAT as the value range of FLOAT is usually bigger than that of INTEGER.



<?php

float ceil ( float $num )


where,

$num = The numeric value to round

?> 

$num


The number to process.

As off PHP 8.0.0 no longer accepts internal objects which support numeric conversion.
