# round

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

round — Rounds a float

### Description

float round ( float `$val` [, int `$precision` = 0 [, int `$mode` = PHP_ROUND_HALF_UP ]] )

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.

> Note: The `precision` parameter was introduced in PHP 4.

### Parameters

`precision`

  The optional number of decimal digits to round to, defaults to 0

`mode`

  One of `PHP_ROUND_HALF_UP`, `PHP_ROUND_HALF_DOWN`, `PHP_ROUND_HALF_EVEN`, or `PHP_ROUND_HALF_ODD`.

### Return Values
