  2. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    In mathematics, the floor function is the function that takes as input a real number x, and gives as output the greatest integer less than or equal to x, denoted ⌊x⌋ or floor(x). Similarly, the ceiling function maps x to the least integer greater than or equal to x, denoted ⌈x⌉ or ceil(x). [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceiling_(aeronautics)

    The service ceiling is the maximum altitude of an aircraft during normal operations. Specifically, it is the density altitude at which flying in a clean configuration , at the best rate of climb airspeed for that altitude and with all engines operating and producing maximum continuous power, will produce a given rate of climb.

  4. Stack resource policy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_Resource_Policy

    The system ceiling, at any instant in time, is the maximum active priority of all the tasks that are currently executing within the system. A task is only allowed to preempt the system when its absolute deadline is less than the currently executing task and its preemption level is higher than the current system ceiling.

  5. Rate of climb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_climb

    V x increases with altitude and V Y decreases with altitude until they converge at the airplane's absolute ceiling, the altitude above which the airplane cannot climb in steady flight. The Cessna 172 is a four-seat aircraft. At maximum weight it has a V Y of 75 kn (139 km/h) indicated airspeed [4] providing a rate of climb of 721 ft/min (3.66 m/s).

    Scott's rule is widely employed in data analysis software including R, [2] Python [3] and Microsoft Excel where it is the default bin selection method. [ 4 ] For a set of n {\displaystyle n} observations x i {\displaystyle x_{i}} let f ^ ( x ) {\displaystyle {\hat {f}}(x)} be the histogram approximation of some function f ( x ) {\displaystyle f ...

    the ceiling of 1.4 is 2. 1.6 rounded is 2, the floor of 1.6 is 1, the ceiling of 1.6 is 2. So the floor of a fraction is always down; the ceiling of a fraction is always up; rounding can be up or down depending upon whether the fraction is less than one half.
