fixceil(3alleg4)

✨ fixceil ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Allegro manual 💖 this one's from the 3alleg4 section, and it's giving "tiny function, big rounding energy" 🎀

💅 NAME 💅

fixceil — returns the smallest integer not less than x. yep that's the whole thing. also: it lives in the Allegro game programming library 🌈

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro.h>

int fixceil(fixed x);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically? fixceil hands you back the smallest integer that is not less than x. no cap. it rounds towards positive infinity — like, it always looks up, never down, main character energy only 👑

here's the vibe in code:

int result;
/* This will put 34 into `result'. */
result = fixceil(itofix(100) / 3);
/* This will round up to 17. */
result = fixceil(itofix(100) / 6);

see how it just… rounds up? iconic. periodt 💅✨

and that's a wrap on the Allegro manual, straight from version 4.4.3 🫶 go round some numbers up, you absolute legend 💜
