[Gambas-user] Best ways to format float values

[Gianluigi]

I would not be misunderstood.
I had understood that Alex wanted a forced increase "Round".

To recap:

  Dim n As Float = 26.6601666666666
  Dim b As Byte

  Print Int(n * 100) / 100              ' Normal truncate, as already
mentioned by other
  Print Round(n, -2)                    ' Normal round, as already
mentioned by other
  If Len(CStr(Frac(n))) > 4 Then
    b = Val(Mid(CStr(Frac(n)), 5, 1))
    If b >= 5 Then
      Print Round(n, -2)
    Else
      Print Round(n + 0.01, -2)         ' Forced increase round, as
proposed by me
    Endif
  Endif
