Question

How is math.ceil(89.7) different from math.floor (89.7)?

Answer 1

Floor: The function 'floor(x)' in Python returns the largest integer not greater than x. i.e. the integer part from the variable.

Ceil: The function 'ceil(x)' in Python returns the smallest integer not less than x i.e., the next integer on the RHS of the number line.

Hence, 'math.ceil(89.7)' will return 90 whereas 'math.floor(89.7)' will return 89.
