Description

There is some minor differences in the str output for ceil a negative number that is > -1 and < 0.
i.e -0.9, -0.1 etc

32bit -0 = "-0"
64bit -0 = "0"

Steps To Reproduce

If you go into arma editor
Open Debug Console
In one of the watch fields enter

32bit

ceil -0.2343242323234

The result = -0 (this is the previous behaviour in arma 1.66)

64bit

ceil -0.2343242323234

The result = 0

For the future, consider using toFixed (Example 3) https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/toFixed

toFixed appears to have float precision issues, would be nice to confirm its really that and accurate to 6 digits etc + not broken

toFixed has as much precision as Arma engine would allow

Hello,

fix for this issue should be now available in the RC branch (1.68 Hotfix), could you please confirm?

Confimed its fixed on rc branch + latest perf build
Thanks
