Round

Synopsis

     function Round (x: Real): Integer;

Description

Round returns the nearest integer to x. The result is of type integer. In the case of equidistance, the result is machine-dependent (or depends on the behaviour of the processor).

Conforming to

Round is defined in ISO 7185 Pascal and supported by all known Pascal variants.

Example

     program RoundDemo;
     var
       Foo: Real;
     begin
       Foo := 9.876543;
       WriteLn (Round (Foo));  { Prints 10 }
       Foo := 3.456789;
       WriteLn (Round (Foo));  { Prints 3 }
     
       WriteLn (Frac (12.345) : 1 : 5);  { 0.34500 }
       WriteLn (Int (12.345) : 1 : 5);  { 12.00000 }
       WriteLn (Round (12.345) : 1);  { 12 }
       WriteLn (Trunc (12.345) : 1);  { 12 }
     
       WriteLn (Frac (-12.345) : 1 : 5);  { -0.34500 }
       WriteLn (Int (-12.345) : 1 : 5);  { -12.00000 }
       WriteLn (Round (-12.345) : 1);  { -12 }
       WriteLn (Trunc (-12.345) : 1);  { -12 }
     
       WriteLn (Frac (12.543) : 1 : 5);  { 0.54300 }
       WriteLn (Int (12.543) : 1 : 5);  { 12.00000 }
       WriteLn (Round (12.543) : 1);  { 13 }
       WriteLn (Trunc (12.543) : 1);  { 12 }
     
       WriteLn (Frac (-12.543) : 1 : 5);  { -0.54300 }
       WriteLn (Int (-12.543) : 1 : 5);  { -12.00000 }
       WriteLn (Round (-12.543) : 1);  { -13 }
       WriteLn (Trunc (-12.543) : 1);  { -12 }
     end.
