    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8948?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17004516#comment-17004516 ] 

Daniel Sun commented on GROOVY-8948:
------------------------------------

Could you try the code with the latest version of groovy 3.0.0? I find it works with groovy-3.0.0-rc-2:

{code:java}
:\_DEV\groovy-3.0.0-rc-2>groovySh
Groovy Shell (3.0.0-rc-2, JVM: 11.0.5)
Type ':help' or ':h' for help.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
groovy:000> Math.ceil(1/2)
===> 1.0
groovy:000>
{code}

>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: groovy-runtime
>    Affects Versions: 2.5.5
>            Reporter: Kenneth Gendron
>            Priority: Minor
>
> The following code will not compile with Groovy:
> {code:java}
> Math.ceil(1/2){code}
> Groovy insists that it try to find Math.ceil(BigDecimal), as opposed to performing the conversion to a double.  The following will work though:
> {code:java}
> Math.ceil((double)1/2){code}
> But the above should not be necessary as Groovy should unbox it.
> Incidentally, this did work with version 2.4.12 and below.
