Hi,

floor will give the highest value of the integer.

ceil will give the lowest value of the integer.

hi look at this ....

REPORT zceil_floor .

parameters: p_int type i ,

p_int1 type i .

data: value type p decimals 2 ,

value1 type p decimals 2 ,

value2 type p decimals 2 .

start-of-selection.

value = p_int / p_int1 .

value1 = ceil( value ) .

value2 = floor( value ) .

write:/ 'the actual value is : ' , value .

write:/ 'value using the ceil function : ' , value1 .

write:/ 'value using the floor function : ' , value2 .

hi,

Floor and ceil are the two mathematical operations performed in ABAP.

there functionality is as follows.

FLOOR(5.4) = 5 " Greatest integer lesser than the given value

CEIL(5.4) = 6. " Smallest integer greater than the given value
