good question, had me stumped there. also good reference to doctor who.
Nice question maybe a bit overrated, but keep it up!
First post so not sure if this is up to par.
I noted that ⌊ π + 2 0 1 6 x ⌋ would be equal to 3 for all x ≤ 1 7 3 0 [which was found by the equation x = 2 0 1 6 ∗ ( 4 − π ) .
So that means within the ceiling function, there are 1731 terms (the first π , then the 1730 floors after that) that equal 3's after the floors are applied. 3 ∗ 1 7 3 1 = 5 1 9 3
For x > 1 7 3 0 , there are 2 0 1 5 − 1 7 3 0 = 2 8 5 terms that equal 4's after the floors are applied. 4 ∗ 2 8 5 = 1 1 4 0
Added together, the ceiling function is 6333. Add the 1, 6334
EDIT: counting error
Same way.!!!

me too , i guess all naruto fans follow the same method.
exactly! Same here as well!
i do exactly like you ... excellent
For 0<=n<=1730 , ⌊ ( π + 2 0 1 6 n ) ⌋ = 3 and 1731<=n<=2015 , ⌊ ( π + 2 0 1 6 n ) ⌋ = 4
therefore answer is , ( 1 7 3 0 − ( 0 − 1 ) ) × 3 + ( 2 0 1 5 − ( 1 7 3 1 − 1 ) ) × 4 + 1 = 1 7 3 1 × 3 + 2 8 5 × 4 + 1 = 6 3 3 4

Using Hermite's Identity ,
⌊ n x ⌋ = ⌊ x ⌋ + ⌊ x + n 1 ⌋ + ⌊ x + n 2 ⌋ + ⋯ + ⌊ x + n n − 1 ⌋ for x ∈ R and n ∈ N
⌈ ⌊ π ⌋ + ⌊ π + 2 0 1 6 1 ⌋ + ⌊ π + 2 0 1 6 2 ⌋ + . . . + ⌊ π + 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 5 ⌋ ⌉ + 1
= ⌈ ⌊ 2 0 1 6 π ⌋ ⌉ + 1
= ⌈ 6 3 3 3 ⌉ + 1
= 6 3 3 4
