Example

  #include <math.h>

  int main(void)
  {
     double number = 123.54;
     double down, up;
     down = floor(number);
     up = ceil(number);
     printf("original number     %5.2lf\n", number);
     printf("number rounded down %5.2lf\n", down);
     printf("number rounded up   %5.2lf\n", up);
