|-N (where -N is a negative number) replaces N digits before the decimal mark with zero (round output to nearest 10 N). |sigfig=N (where N is a positive number) to specify the number of significant digits (round output to N significant figures). |round=5 to round the output to the nearest multiple of 5. The round value can be 0.5, 5, 10, 25 or ...
In traditional rounding, numbers between 0 and <5 are rounded to 0, while numbers between 5 and <10 are rounded to 10, if 10 is an increase in the next highest digit of the number being rounded. The difference of (<10 - 5) equals the difference of (<5 - 0), doesn't it? Am I missing something? 4.242.147.47 21:13, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
