My big wish at the moment is for the addition of @ceiling and @floor functions.

For those who don't know what these are:

@ceiling rounds up to the nearest whole integer and @floor rounds down to the nearest whole number.

Examples:

@ceiling[12.4] would return 13
@floor[91.56] would return 91

You could write macros for these in the userdefs.udf file.

Consider the existing @frac and @round macros:

@frac[@]=~1-@int[~1]
@round[@]=@int[~1]+(@frac[~1]>=.5)

So you could add your own:

@ceiling[@]=@int[~1]+(@frac[~1]<>0)

Actually the @int function already does what the @floor function does by just removing the fractional part.

@floor[@]=@int[~1]
