RE: [sqr-users] Rounding to the next whole number

["Kyle Leonard" <kyle.leonard@1answersolutions.com>]

Hi Murali,

One way to do this is to change the number to a string, look for a decimal
point in the string, copy everything after the decimal to a number variable.
If it is greater than 0, it is non-whole.  If it is equal to 0, whole.

begin-procedure check_for_whole_nbr ( #number_in, $whole )

move #number_in to $str_nbr
let #offset = instr($str_nbr, '.', 1)
let #length = length($str_nbr)
let $piece = substr($str_nbr, #offset, #len)
move $piece to #piece

if #piece > 0
        $whole = 'false'
else
        $whole = 'true'
end-if

end-procedure

If there is a simpler way to do this, I'd like to know. I don't remember a
function in SQR to do this.

Kyle

Sudheer,
Thanks for your reply, 
I am not trying to print the result, after I divide the number, I just
want to investigate the result whether it is a whole number or not if
not get the next whole number.
How do I investigate the result number after dividing.

Thanks,
Murali

Hi murali,
         You can divide the number with any number and id it is an
amount edit the number while printing like  Your_final_print_variable =
edit(&calculated_number,'$$$,$$$,$$0' )  

Else it is just a number then use this

PRINT $ Your_final_print_variable     (0,+{col_sep},{col_amt})  edit 999

Thanks

I have to divide a number by 10 and if the resulting number is not a
whole number, I have to Round up to the next whole number.
How can I accomplish this?
Appreciate your response.

Thanks,
Murali
