Hi people, I need some help!
How do I tell an script to round some number towards zero?
Thx!
Hello
The Standard Additions dictionary claims:
round: Round number to integer
round real -- the number to round
[rounding up/down/toward zero/to
nearest/as taught in school] -- the rounding
direction; if omitted, rounds to nearest. ³to
nearest² rounds .5 cases to the nearest even
integer in order to decrease cumulative errors.
To always round .5 away from zero, use ³as
taught in school.²
Result: integer -- the rounded value

ok, how do I then fx round to x decimals ?
(and not to zero )
ex:
US style 1,000.1234 --> 1,000.12
Euro style 1.000,1234 --> 1.000,12
where 0,1,2,3,4 gets rounded down and 5,6,7,8,9 gets rounded up
