I was using a 3.23.30-gamma win2k. > mysql> select @a:=digits,number,round(number,@a) from testme; > +------------+----------+------------------+ > | @a:=digits | number | round(number,@a) | > +------------+----------+------------------+ > | 3 | 100.4235 | 100.4230 | > | 1 | 85.4000 | 85.4000 | > +------------+----------+------------------+ > 2 rows in set (0.00 sec) Wouldn't you expect the output to be something like: +------------+----------+------------------+ | @a:=digits | number | round(number,@a) | +------------+----------+------------------+ | 3 | 100.4235 | 100.423 | | 1 | 85.4000 | 85.4 | +------------+----------+------------------+ also.... 100.423... should it not be 100.424?
