Paging Calculation Note

Formula to calculate starting row from maxRows: maxRows*(page-1)
Formula to calculate numberOfPages (count + maxRows - 1) / maxRows

public List getCustomers() {
return customerManager.findAllCustomers(MAX_RESULTS * (page-1), MAX_RESULTS);
}

public long getNumOfPages() {
return (customerManager.findAllCustomersCount().longValue() + MAX_RESULTS - 1) / MAX_RESULTS;
}
