SQL Rounding Question

Question

I have the following values being returned in a column.. 0.250000 and 13.000000. I'd like to round the 0.250000 up to 1 and leave the 13 as is. Any easy way to do this since they both fall within the same column?

Answer 1

Your DBMS probably has a CEILING function. Try that.

Answer 2

The ceiling function will work well because you want to round to the nearest whole number. For more methods on rounding with SQL Server....

Answer 3

select CEILING( columnname ) from tablename
