whoops, I forgot the boundary condition
to round_up(i, r)
if i mod r = 0 then return i
return i + r - (i mod r)
end round_up
Howdy,
I need to extract the minutes from the time string of current date
and then round them up to the next 5 minute increment. I can extract
the minutes with no problem but the rounding is my weak spot (my
loss of mathematical ability is documented in the archives of this
list). :P
So, how do I round 14 to 15, or 16 to 20? Does anyone care to share
a handler which addresses this?
Thanks for any help that you might offer.
