Round function(4,45 = 4,4)?

Can someone explain the logic of the Round function ??I’ve read the description and as it states the round function rounds to the nearest EVEN number… but why ??

the matematical logic is simply that it should round up from ex. 4,45 to 4,5 instead of 4,4 ???.. Tell me why…??

This is an old bug which exists in all Notes versions up to 7.

Here’s also a workaround (see Bug #5):

OLD topic - well hashed out. Search in the 4/5 forum. For what it’s worth, here’s a link to a great article on various rounding algorithms (I had no idea it was such a contentious subject…)
