Math::Round Method (Double)
Rounds a double-precision floating-point value to the nearest integral value.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- a
-
Type:
System::Double
A double-precision floating-point number to be rounded.
Return Value
Type: System::DoubleThe integer nearest a. If the fractional component of a 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 Double instead of an integral type.

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(Double) method may not appear to round midpoint values to the nearest even integer. In the following example, because the floating-point value .1 has no finite binary representation, the first call to the Round(Double) method with a value of 11.5 returns 11 instead of 12.
