How can I perform ceiling division on an integer? I want to avoid converting to a floating point value.
For example, 7 / 4
should return 2
, not 1
.
Rust 1.73 Update:
There is u32::div_ceil()
on stable now.
While i32::div_ceil()
is unstable on nightly.
Rust stable v1.61.0 branch: ceil(a/b)
is (a + b - 1) / b
if you know that that addition won't overflow.
