Floor and ceiling in R is demonstrated with examples in this chapter
- floor(x) function in R rounds to the nearest integer that’s smaller than x.
- ceiling(x) function in R rounds to the nearest integer that’s larger than x
Example of floor() function in R:
# floor function in R floor(125.2395)
output:
[1] 125
Example of floor() function in R for a vector:
# floor function in R for vector floor(c(1.234,2.342,4.562,5.671,12.345,14.567))
output:
[1] 1 2 4 5 12 14
Example of ceiling() function in R:
# ceiling function in R ceiling(125.2395)
output:
[1] 126
Example of ceiling() function in R for a vector:
# ceiling() function in R for vector ceiling(c(1.234,2.342,4.562,5.671,12.345,14.567))
output:
[1] 2 3 5 6 13 15
