I am computing some values and to do so I need to find the ceiling of a number. I know that I can use Math.ceil(). But the issue is, when I use Math.ceil(,5) it gives me 1, and Math.ceil(50/100) gives me 0.
Please let me know what is happening to get different ceilings for different values
math.ceil(50/100) is the same as math.ceil(0), since 50/100 is 0 (since integer division is performed here, and the result is therefore an integer).
math.ceil(50.0/100.0) would give you 1, since 50.0/100.0 will be computed with floating point division and result in 0.5.
