ODD function
Overview
ODD is a function of the Math and Trigonometry category that rounds a number up (away from zero) to the nearest odd integer.
Usage
Syntax
ODD(number) => odd
Argument descriptions
- number (number, required). The number that is to be rounded to the nearest odd integer.
Additional guidance
- ODD rounds away from zero, meaning:
- Positive numbers are rounded up to the next odd integer.
- Negative numbers are rounded down (toward negative infinity) to the next odd integer.
- If the number argument is already an odd integer, ODD returns it unchanged.
- Since zero is considered an even number, the ODD function returns 1 when number is 0.
Returned value
ODD returns a number that is the nearest odd integer, rounded away from zero.
Error conditions
- In common with many other IronCalc functions, ODD propagates errors that are found in its argument.
- If no argument, or more than one argument, is supplied, then ODD returns the
#ERROR!error. - If the value of the number argument is not (or cannot be converted to) a number, then ODD returns the
#VALUE!error.
