Introduction

Other than Python built-in functions, there are numerous functions which can be found in some packages which need to be imported when needed which are called modules. 

Such a module in python is the math module. Python's standard library provides a module viz. math for math functions that work with all number types except complex numbers.

The Math module in Python is enriched with plenty of functions.

Note!: To use the math module one must import it first into the Python compiler one has been working with. The syntax to do so is given below:

import math

FUNCTIONS IN MATH MODULE

ceil(): This function returns the closest just above integer when a value has been passed.

Syntax:

x = math.ceil(2.4)
print(x)

floor(): This function returns the closest just below integer when a value has been passed.

Syntax:

y = math.floor(2.4)
print(y)

fabs(): This function returns the absolute number in floats when a negative or positive value has been passed in float or integer form.

Syntax:

print(math.fabs(2.4))
print(math.fabs(-6.8))
print(math.fabs(-27))
print(math.fabs(78))

More functions based on this module will be continued in a later blog post...
