# ODD

The ODD function rounds a number up and returns the nearest higher odd integer. If the input number is already an odd number, it remains unchanged. The function accepts numeric values or cell references as arguments and is useful in calculations where results must conform to odd-number requirements.

### Syntax

```javascript
ODD(value)
```

### Arguments

value - The input number to be rounded off (Required).

### Example

```javascript
ODD(Column)
```

In the example below, the *ODD* measure is created using the **ODD** function, which rounds the values in *MEASURE 2* to the nearest higher odd number.
