Hey, I have the following problem: I want to round up to the next 10. Meaning if I have x=14.5613, I want this to become x=20. I used the following Code:
x=14.5613;
x=round(x,-1);
x=10
To get x=20 I could just do this:
x=round(x,-1)+10
The Problem with this code comes when x is higher than 15. For example
x=18.5613
x=round(x,-1)+10
solves to x=30. So what I am looking for is a rounding function which rounds UP to the next 10 and NOT to the NEAREST. Can anybody help me? That would be awesome:)

x=14.5613;
xRound = ceil(x/10)*10;
