:: Feel free to change it if you think it's best. My reasoning for using was this: because "round" was spelled out in the preceding text, the context was sufficient to make <math>⌈·⌋</math> acceptable despite not being well-established. And I like <math>⌈·⌋</math> because it's concise, and also because it's logical w/r/t to the well-established ceil <math>⌈·⌉</math> and floor <math>⌊·⌋</math> notations. I knew it was used at least sometimes but couldn't remember specifically where I'd seen <math>⌈·⌋</math> before, but a web search confirmed that it's at least not entirely unheard of. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 21:22, 24 February 2022 (UTC) | |||
