There are 3 functions to round a number. Your number to round:: 37.37 Round() = 37 Ceil() = 38 Floor() = 37 In case the number were 37.67 for example Round would return 38. Since 37.67 it's closer to 38. 37.37 for example it's closer to 37. 37.49 would return 37. and finally 37.51 would return 38.

You don't want the solution. Cool. What you missed is that the description says you're supposed to round up.

But there is a round() function. Should it be used, or is there another method?

I didn't even want coding help, I learn from mistakes. I didn't know with this ceil, I'm still learning the basics. But now I'm learning

If you feel bad about the spoiler, treat is as "you need a library call 'math'". As you advance in the code coach, you will need another library to help you.

I use ceil. But first we need to import from math library. from math import ceil print(ceil(p))
