Round(Single, Int32, MidpointRounding)

Rounds a single-precision floating-point value to a specified number of fractional digits using the specified rounding convention.

Round(Single, MidpointRounding)

Rounds a single-precision floating-point value to an integer using the specified rounding convention.

Round(Single)

Rounds a single-precision floating-point value to the nearest integral value, and rounds midpoint values to the nearest even number.

Round(Single, Int32)

Rounds a single-precision floating-point value to a specified number of fractional digits, and rounds midpoint values to the nearest even number.

Rounds a single-precision floating-point value to a specified number of fractional digits using the specified rounding convention.

public:
 static float Round(float x, int digits, MidpointRounding mode);
public static float Round (float x, int digits, MidpointRounding mode);
static member Round : single * int * MidpointRounding -> single
Public Shared Function Round (x As Single, digits As Integer, mode As MidpointRounding) As Single

Parameters

x
Single

A single-precision floating-point number to be rounded.

digits
Int32

The number of fractional digits in the return value.

mode
MidpointRounding

One of the enumeration values that specifies which rounding strategy to use.

Returns

The number that x is rounded to that has digits fractional digits. If x has fewer fractional digits than digits, x is returned unchanged.

Exceptions

digits is less than 0 or greater than 6.

mode is not a valid value of MidpointRounding.

Remarks

The value of the digits argument can range from 0 to 6. The maximum number of integral and fractional digits supported by the Single type is 6.

Important

When rounding midpoint values, the rounding algorithm performs an equality test. Because of problems of binary representation and precision in the floating-point format, the value returned by the method can be unexpected. For more information, see Rounding and precision.

If the value of the x argument is Single.NaN, the method returns Single.NaN. If x is Single.PositiveInfinity or Single.NegativeInfinity, the method returns Single.PositiveInfinity or Single.NegativeInfinity, respectively.

Round(Single)

Source:
MathF.cs
Source:
MathF.cs
Source:
MathF.cs

Rounds a single-precision floating-point value to the nearest integral value, and rounds midpoint values to the nearest even number.

public:
 static float Round(float x);
public static float Round (float x);
static member Round : single -> single
Public Shared Function Round (x As Single) As Single

Parameters

x
Single

A single-precision floating-point number to be rounded.

Returns

The integer nearest x. If the fractional component of x is halfway between two integers, one of which is even and the other odd, then the even number is returned. Note that this method returns a Single instead of an integral type.

Remarks

This method uses the default rounding convention of MidpointRounding.ToEven.

Important

When rounding midpoint values, the rounding algorithm performs an equality test. Because of problems of binary representation and precision in the floating-point format, the value returned by the method can be unexpected. For more information, see Rounding and precision.

If the value of the x argument is Single.NaN, the method returns Single.NaN. If x is Single.PositiveInfinity or Single.NegativeInfinity, the method returns Single.PositiveInfinity or Single.NegativeInfinity, respectively.

Notes to Callers

Because of the loss of precision that can result from representing decimal values as floating-point numbers or performing arithmetic operations on floating-point values, in some cases the Round(Single) method may not appear to round midpoint values to the nearest even integer.
