Search for \"rounding\" on Baidu, and you will find Baidu Baike’s article on \"rules for numerical rounding\": http://baike.baidu.com/view/89189.htm. There is a simple mnemonic to help with this: for 4, round down; for 6, round up. For 5, look at the digit to its right – if there is a digit there, round up. If the digit to the right is 0, look at the digits to its left; round up if the number of digits there is odd, otherwise round down
2.71828 = 2.7; 57.65 = 57.6; 33.8820 = 33.8; 84.7500 = 84.8; 33.25000000001 = 33.3. There is a mnemonic for this: round up to the nearest whole number; if it’s 5, look at the digit following it. If there is no such digit, consider whether the preceding digit is odd or even – if it’s odd, round up by one, otherwise do not round up. If there is a digit after 5, round up by one directly. I think so, I can’t remember clearly.
I’m stunned – I mistook 33.88; never mind, it can’t be changed. Depressed
My answer: 2.7; 57.6 ; 33.9 ; 84.8 ; 33.2 (It seems to be rounded to five spouses)
2.71828 2.7 57.65 57.6 33..8820 33.9 84.7500 84.8 33.25000000001 33.3 Odd increments, even no increments – is that correct?
