The floor of x, written [x], also called the integral part, integer part, or greatest integer, is defined as the greatest integer less than or equal to x. Similarly the ceiling of x, written [x], is the smallest integer greater than or equal to x. Try figuring out the answers to the following: (a) [2.1] (b) [2] (c) [2.9] (d) [2.1] (e) [2] (f) [2.9] 2. The simple pidgeonhole principle states that, if you have N places and k items (k> N), then at least one hole must have more than one item in it. We tried this with chairs and students: Assume you have N = 12 chairs and k = 18 students. Then at least one chair must have more than one student on it. 3. The general pidgeonhole principle states that, if you have N places and k items, then at least one hole must have [] items or more in it. Try this out with (a) n = 10 chairs and k = 15 students (b) n = 10 chairs and k = 23 students (c) n = 10 chairs and k = 20 students 4.
