This article describes the formula syntax and usage of the ROUNDUP function.
Description
Rounds a number up, away from 0 (zero).
Syntax
ROUNDUP(number, num_digits)
The ROUNDUP function syntax has the following arguments:
- number - Required. Any real number that you want rounded up.
- num_digits - Required. The number of digits to which you want to round number.
Remarks
- ROUNDUP behaves like the ROUND function, except that it always rounds a number up.
- If num_digits is greater than 0 (zero), then number is rounded up to the specified number of decimal places.
- If num_digits is 0, then number is rounded up to the nearest integer.
- If num_digits is less than 0, then number is rounded up to the left of the decimal point.
