Math.Round Method (Decimal)

The behavior of this method follows IEEE Standard 754, section 4. This kind of rounding is sometimes called rounding to nearest, or banker's rounding. It minimizes rounding errors that result from consistently rounding a midpoint value in a single direction. It is equivalent to calling the Round method with a mode argument of MidpointRounding.ToEven.

To control the type of rounding used by the Round(Decimal) method, call the Math.Round(Decimal, MidpointRounding) overload.

The following example demonstrates rounding to nearest.

using System;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
    Console.WriteLine("Classic Math.Round in CSharp");
    Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(4.4)); // 4
    Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(4.5)); // 4
    Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(4.6)); // 5
    Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(5.5)); // 6
    }
}
