What's "normal" rounding??????
One can round with a roof function, or one can round with a sealing function,
or one can round always towards odd numbers, or always even number, or one can
round by adding or subtracting a factor 0,5 to the multiple before rounding,
or one can use a combination of the above, so I am curious about to know what's
normal, and why it is normal then?
