### Examples

```csharp

using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    void Start()
    {
        // Prints 10.0f
        Debug.Log(Mathf.Ceil(10.0f));
        // Prints 11.0f
        Debug.Log(Mathf.Ceil(10.2f));
        // Prints 11.0f
        Debug.Log(Mathf.Ceil(10.7f));

        // Prints -10.0f
        Debug.Log(Mathf.Ceil(-10.0f));
        // Prints -10.0f
        Debug.Log(Mathf.Ceil(-10.2f));
        // Prints -10.0f
        Debug.Log(Mathf.Ceil(-10.7f));
