   float x  
);  // C++ only  
long double ceil(  
   long double x  
);  // C++ only  
float ceilf(  
   float x  
);  
long double ceill(  
   long double x  
);

Floating-point value.

ceil has an implementation that uses Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2). For information and restrictions about using the SSE2 implementation, see _set_SSE2_enable.

Remarks

Because C++ allows overloading, you can call overloads of ceil. In a C program, ceil always takes and returns a double.
