NumPy - ceil() function
The NumPy ceil() function returns the ceiling value of the input data. The ceiling of the scalar x is the smallest integer i, such that i >= x.
Syntax
numpy.ceil(a, out=None)
Parameters
a |
Required. Specify array (array_like) containing elements, of which the ceiling value is calculated. |
out |
Optional. Specify a location into which the result is stored. If provided, it must have a shape that the inputs broadcast to. If not provided or None, a freshly-allocated array is returned. |
Return Value
Returns the ceiling value of each element of a.
Example:
In the example below, numpy ceil() function is used to calculate the ceiling value of each element present in array Arr.
import numpy as np Arr = np.array([0.65, 6.56, 52.67, 167.23]) print("Original Array:") print(Arr) print("\nCeiling value array:") print(np.ceil(Arr))
The output of the above code will be:
Original Array: [ 0.65 6.56 52.67 167.23] Ceiling value array: [ 1. 7. 53. 168.]
