Re: making a number from a decimal in XPath 2.0

Hi Wendell,
But if I say

string-join((for $i in (1 to ceiling($arg div $extent)) return 'e'),'')

I get an error (Saxon 8.4) telling me I need an xs:integer as the second
argument of the range expression "1 to ceiling($arg div $extent)", but I
have an xs:decimal.

How do I make ceiling($arg div $extent) into an integer?

Use:
   xs:integer(ceiling($arg div $extent))


Cheers,
Dimitre
