Mark Dickinson added the comment: Thanks. It's inaccurate to say that a float is returned in general, though: for most builtin numeric types, what's returned has the same type as its input. So rounding a Decimal to two places gives a Decimal on output, etc. (That's already explained in the next paragraph.)
