sorry-

not only did i post the wrong version, but mine clobbered the existing
truncate in Float, this ought to work:

jib:~/eg/ruby > cat roundn.rb
class Float
def roundn sd = 2
f = self.floor
prec = 10.0 ** sd.to_i.abs
frac = (f == 0 ? self : self - f)
f + (frac * prec).round / prec
end
end

p(0.1 * (134.45/0.1).roundn)                   #=> 134.45
p((134.45 * (1/0.1)).roundn.to_f / (1/0.1))    #=> 134.45

jib:~/eg/ruby > ruby roundn.rb
134.45
134.45

regards.

ps.  i'm cc'ing you directly to let you know your message ends up as one big
line in my mailer and i'm wondering if it's on my end or yours?
