I misunderstood what you were trying to do.  I thought xmax-xmin was
supposed to be an exact multiple of delta (say 3) and that you were
using ceiling to deal with roundoff error making the quotient 2.999999,
by rounding it up to 3.  Your requirement turns out to be different
though roundoff errors are still possible.
