I do believe however, that my script is correct and yours is not in this case.
I think the OP's third example contains a mistake and 12345678 should turn into 20000000 instead of 10000000
That is not rounding to the nearest value.
12345678 is nearer 10000000 than 20000000.
12 is nearer to 10 than to 20.
