Math.Floor Or else?

[abs2003]

Hi everyone,
How can round numbers like..

10.1 to 10
10.4 to 10
10.5 to 10
10.7 to 10
10.0 to 10

Yes, I can use Math.Floor. But it won't work with converting 10.0 to 10.

Any idea?

Thank you

You could always use int e.g.

Dim i As Integer = Int("10.6")

Thanks guys,
I solved my problem by adding .001 to the number before using floor function.

example

dim newNumber as integer
dim oldNumber as double= 10.0


newNumber = Math.Floor(oldNumber + .001)

This will return number of 10.

The reason, if you call Floor function with parameter as 10.0, it will return 9. I sure don't understand why Microsoft did this.

And what happens when you come across this scenario:

        Dim newNumber As Integer
        Dim oldNumber As Double = 10.999
        newNumber = Math.Floor(oldNumber + 0.001)

and your newNumber returns 11?

10.0 is equal to 10. Just use Math.Floor and format your number for display however you want.
