Dear PostgreSQL developers and webmasters

It appears that the documentation of the mathematical functions
"ceiling" and "floor" are wrong (inverted).

result is correct and as one would expect::
select ceiling(43.8); =>44
select floor(43.8); =>43

documentation is misleading:
select ceiling(43.8); =>43
select floor(43.8); =>44

found in:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/functions-math.html
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/static/functions-math.html

Cheers,
Patrick
