DESCRIPTION

       The floor(), floorf(), and floorl() functions return the largest floating-point integer value less than or equal to  x.

       The ceil(), ceilf(), and ceill() functions return the smallest floating-point integer value greater than or equal to  x.

       The modf(), modff(), and modfl() functions split a floating-point number x into a fractional part f and an integer part i such that  |f|  <
       1.0 and (f + i) = x.  Both f and i have the same sign as x.  The modf(), modff(), and modfl() functions return f and store i into the loca-
       tion pointed to by n.

       The nint(), nintf(), and nintl() functions return the nearest integral value to x, except halfway cases are rounded to the  integral  value
       larger in magnitude. This corresponds to the FORTRAN generic intrinsic function nint().

       The  rint(), rintf(),  and rintl() functions round x to an integral value according to the current IEEE rounding direction specified by the
       user.

       The trunc(), truncf(), and truncl() functions truncate x to an integral value.  delim off

Name
       floor,  ffloor,	fabs,  ceil,  ceil,  trunc,  ftrunc, fmod, rint - floor, absolute value, ceiling, truncation, floating point remainder and
       round-to-nearest functions

Syntax
       #include <math.h>

       double floor(x)
       double x;

       float ffloor(x)
       float x;

       double ceil(x)
       double x;

       float fceil(x)
       float x;

       double trunc(x)
       double x;

       float ftrunc(x)
       float x;

       double fabs(x)
       double x;

       double fmod (x, y)
       double x, y;

       double rint(x)
       double x;

Description
       The and routines return the largest integer which is not greater than x for double and float data types, respectively.

       The and routines return the smallest integer which is not less than x for double and float data types, respectively.

       The and routines return the integer (represented as a floating-point number) of x with the fractional bits truncated for double	and  float
       data types respectively.

       The routine returns the absolute value |x|.

       The  routine returns the floating point remainder of the division of x by y: zero if y is zero or if x/y would overflow; otherwise the num-
       ber f with the same sign as x, such that x = iy + f for some integer i, and |f| < |y|.

       The routine returns the integer (represented as a double precision number) nearest x in the direction of the prevailing rounding mode.

       In the default rounding mode, to nearest, is the integer nearest x with the additional stipulation that if |rint(x)-x|=1/2  then  is  even.
       Other rounding modes can make act like or or round towards zero.

       Another way to obtain an integer near x is to declare (in C)
	      double x;     int k;    k = x;
       The  C  compiler  rounds  x  towards 0 to get the integer k.  Also note that, if x is larger than k can accommodate, the value of k and the
       presence or absence of an integer overflow are hard to predict.

       The routine is in libc.a rather than libm.a.
