Property	Details
Function	ceil(number)
Description	Returns the smallest integer greater than or equal to the given number.
Parameters	number (Number) – The number for which to return the ceiling value.
Return Type	Number – The smallest integer greater than or equal to the provided number.
Errors	If the argument is not a number, an error will occur. If the number of arguments is not exactly one, an error will occur.
Example	ceil(4.2) → 5 ceil(-1.7) → -1

cos

Property	Details
Function	cos(number)
Description	Returns the cosine of the given number (interpreted as an angle in radians).
Parameters	number (Number) – The angle in radians for which to compute the cosine value.
