Description
The Excel ROUND function rounds a fractional number to a specified number of digits.
In the ROUND function, the general principle of rounding (i.e. roundup if proceeding digit is greater than 5) is observed.
The Excel ROUND Function is similar to the other ROUNDING FUNCTION (e.g. ROUNDUP and ROWNDOWN ) except in the other functions digit after point/ fraction is rounded up or down, whereas the ROUND function follows the general rule of rounding numbers.
