>Description:
Odd numbers round properly at the half (3.5) but even numbers don't (4.5).
>How-To-Repeat:
mysql> select round(15.5);
+-------------+
| round(15.5) |
+-------------+
| 16 |
+-------------+
1 row in set (0.01 sec)
mysql> select round(16.5);
+-------------+
| round(16.5) |
+-------------+
| 16 |
+-------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
>Fix:
If you only want the integer part without the fraction, you could add a small factor
like '0.01' or smaller if the case warrants.
mysql> select round(16.5 + 0.01);
+--------------------+
| round(16.5 + 0.01) |
+--------------------+
| 17 |
+--------------------+
1 row in set (0.08 sec)
But this slows down processing somewhat.
