The built-in function round( ) will always "round up", that is 1.5 is rounded to 2.0 and 2.5 is rounded to 3.0.
If I want to round to the nearest even, that is my_round(1.5) = 2 # As expected my_round(2.5) = 2 # Not 3, which is an odd num I'm interested in rounding numbers of the form "x.5" depending upon whether x is odd or even. Any idea about how to implement it ? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
