round
Synopsis
round(x
,n
=0)
Returns a float
whose value is number
x
rounded to n
digits after the decimal point (i.e., the multiple of
10**-
n
that is closest
to x
). When two such multiples are equally
close to x
, round
returns the one that is farther from 0
. Since
today’s computers represent floating-point numbers
in binary, not in decimal, most of
round
’s results are not exact.
