"round x returns the nearest integer to x, the even integer if x is equidistant between two integers."
Is there any explanation about that ?
Yes. math.h, rint() and IEEE. The Right Way(tm) to round is rounding every other n.5 into a different direction: round 1.5 = 2 round 2.5 = 2 round 3.5 = 4 round 4.5 = 4 and so on. It's statistically correct, that is, but also more computationally expensive. In practise, such things rarely matter, so you just don't need to care. If you have to care, pray that you know it. You're also bound to slam your nose into much, much messier issues then, too, wishing you'd learnt higher numerics in school, kind of like learning Haskell and wishing the first grade math curriculum was based on categories instead of sets. -- (c) this sig last receiving data processing entity.
