Hey guys. This is such a noob question but it is one of those things I have never bothered learning because you dont think much about it. HOw do you round dcecimals? I have this proceduare that when it calculates the answer it NORMALLY comes out like a HUGE decimal. If you could let me know how to round it to one decimal point, that would be great! Thanks a lot, -Dave |

rounding to closest integer is done with round(). To save that one (or any number really) decimal point beyond the integer "cutoff", think powers of 10 |

DaveAngus has an excellent point there. Saying random stuff without reading the thread is a quick way to get banned. |
