This method is used to round the decimal to the closest integer toward positive infinity.

Syntax: public static decimal Ceiling (decimal d);
Here d is the decimal whose ceiling value is to be calculated.

Return Value: It returns the smallest integral value that is greater than or equal to the d parameter. Note that this method returns a Decimal instead of an integral type.

Below programs illustrate the use of Decimal.Ceiling(Decimal) Method:

Example 1:




// C# program to demonstrate the
// Decimal.Ceiling(Decimal) Method
using System;
using System.Globalization;
  
class GFG {
  
    // Main Method
    public static void Main()
    {
  
        // Declaring the decimal variable
        Decimal a = 4.01m;
  
        // finding the ceiling of 
        // the Decimal value
        // using ceiling() method;
        Decimal value = Decimal.Ceiling(a);
  
        // Display the ceiling
        Console.WriteLine("Ceiling Value is : {0}",
                                            value);
    }
}


Output:

Ceiling Value is : 5

Example 2:




// C# program to demonstrate the
// Decimal.Ceiling(Decimal) Method
using System;
using System.Globalization;
  
class GFG {
  
    // Main Method
    public static void Main()
    {
  
        // Declaring the decimal variable
        Decimal a = -5.03m;
  
        // finding the Ceiling of
        // the Decimal value
        // using Ceiling() method;
        Decimal value = Decimal.Ceiling(a);
  
        // Display the Ceiling
        Console.WriteLine("Ceiling Value is : {0}",
                                            value);
    }
}


Output:

Ceiling Value is : -5

Example 3:




// C# program to demonstrate the
// Decimal.Ceiling(Decimal) Method
using System;
using System.Globalization;
  
class GFG {
  
    // Main Method
    public static void Main()
    {
  
        // Declaring the decimal variable
        Decimal a = 2.00m;
  
        // finding the Ceiling of
        // the Decimal value
        // using Ceiling() method;
        Decimal value = Decimal.Ceiling(a);
  
        // Display the Ceiling
        Console.WriteLine("Ceiling Value is : {0}",
                                            value);
    }
}


Output:

Ceiling Value is : 2
