CEIL
CEIL(f) is ceiling, it returns the integer that is equal to or just more than f
CEIL(f) give the integer that is equal to, or just higher than f. CEIL always rounds up.
CEIL(2.7) -> 3 CEIL(-2.7) -> -2
In this example we calculate the population in millions.
SELECT population/1000000 AS a,
FLOOR(population/1000000) AS b
FROM bbc
SELECT population/1000000 AS a,
CEIL(population/1000000) AS b
FROM bbc
