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.)
