The **`ceil()` method** in Scala gets an integer that is greater than or equal to a given number by rounding up the given number.

#   
## Syntax

The `ceil()` method can be declared as shown in the code snippet below:
```scala
(num).ceil
```
* **`num`**: The number whose ceil value is required.

## Return value

The `ceil()` method returns the ceil value of a number by rounding up the number.

## Example

The code snippet below demonstrates the use of the `ceil()` method:

object main {
  
  def main(args: Array[String]) = {

    val n1 = -2.5;
    println("(-2.5).ceil: " + (n1).ceil);

    val n2 = -2.2;
    println("(-2.2).ceil: " + (n2).ceil);

    val n3 = 0;
    println("(0).ceil: " + (n3).ceil);

    val n4 = 3.9;
    println("(3.9).ceil: " + (n4).ceil);

    val n5 = 3.1;
    println("(3.1).ceil: " + (n5).ceil);

  }
}

What is the ceil() method in Scala?

Rounds a number up to nearest integer greater than or equal to the number.
