Savio,
One place to look is the JDK. Here's what says for
Math.ceil()
If the argument value is less than zero but greater than -1.0,
then the result is negative zero.
To find out more about how
Java handles floating-point numbers in general, check the JLS§4.2.3 and 4.2.4
You can view them both on-line or download them from
http://java.sun.com/docs/index.html Hope that helps.
