I noticed that floor() and ceiling() evaluate on complex values, like
In [13]: ceiling(1.5*I + 1.5)
Out[13]: 2 + 2⋅ⅈ
In [14]: floor(1.5*I + 1.5)
Out[14]: 1 + ⅈ
In other words, the usual floor and ceiling are applied to the real
and imaginary parts separately.
I'm curious if anyone knows why this particular generalization was used.
