ROUND(3)								 1								  ROUND(3)

round - Rounds a float

SYNOPSIS

       float round (float  $val, [int  $precision], [int  $mode = PHP_ROUND_HALF_UP])

DESCRIPTION

	Returns  the  rounded value of $val to specified $precision (number of digits after the decimal point). $precision can also be negative or
       zero (default).

       Note

	       PHP doesn't handle strings like "12,300.2" correctly by default. See converting from strings.

PARAMETERS

	      o $val
		- The value to round

	      o $precision
		- The optional number of decimal digits to round to.

	      o $mode
		- Use one of the following constants to specify the mode in which rounding occurs.
