Yes it needs to be added, I will see if it can be added as an optional parameter to Round, the problem is that Round already has an optional parameter as destination point. :)

BTW, just to add to your day, there is another oddball situation called bankers rounding.

This rounds .5 values to the nearest even number. So 2.5 goes down to 2.0 and 3.5 goes up to 4.0. It gives pretty accurate results if you apply it to a long list of numbers and then average them.

I think some of the heavyweight languages (delphi, maybe VB) actually use bankers rounding as their standard approach. Or used to.

Don't you love it.
