2. Rounding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

   For example, rounding x = 2.1784 dollars to whole cents (i.e., to a multiple of 0.01) entails computing 2.1784 / 0.01 = 217.84, then rounding that to 218, and finally computing 218 × 0.01 = 2.18. When rounding to a predetermined number of significant digits, the increment m depends on the magnitude of the number to be rounded (or of the ...

3. Cash rounding - Wikipedia

   In practice, the proportion of transactions rounded upwards is greater, due to psychological pricing of items ending in 90–99 öre. Rounding is only done on the total sum of a purchase, which makes that effect smaller. In some shops, all prices are already rounded to the whole krone, so that no rounding takes place.

   A round number is an integer that ends with one or more "0"s (zero-digit) in a given base. [1] So, 590 is rounder than 592, but 590 is less round than 600. In both technical and informal language, a round number is often interpreted to stand for a value or values near to the nominal value expressed.

   0.00034 has 2 significant figures (3 and 4) if the resolution is 0.00001. Zeros to the right of the last non-zero digit (trailing zeros) in a number with the decimal point are significant if they are within the measurement or reporting resolution. 1.200 has four significant figures (1, 2, 0, and 0) if they are allowed by the measurement resolution.

6. Round-off error - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

   This rounding rule is biased because it always moves the result toward zero. Round-to-nearest : f l ( x ) {\displaystyle fl(x)} is set to the nearest floating-point number to x {\displaystyle x} . When there is a tie, the floating-point number whose last stored digit is even (also, the last digit, in binary form, is equal to 0) is used.

8. Roundness (geology) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roundness_(Geology)

   Schematic representation of difference in grain shape. Two parameters are shown: sphericity (vertical) and rounding (horizontal). Rounding, roundness or angularity are terms used to describe the shape of the corners on a particle (or clast) of sediment. [1] Such a particle may be a grain of sand, a pebble, cobble or boulder.

9. Roundedness - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roundedness

   There are two types of vowel rounding: protrusion and compression. [3] [4] [5] In protruded rounding, the corners of the mouth are drawn together and the lips protrude like a tube, with their inner surface visible. In compressed rounding, the corners of the mouth are drawn together, but the lips are also drawn together horizontally ("compressed ...
