Message: [QUOTE="Gary Mayor, post: 4750091"] Hi, What a nightmare i've been trawling deja all morning for a simple method of rounding a number up to 2 decimal places. I've checked out the ceil function which only rounds numbers up to no decimal places which is no good. The printf function rounds numbers up and down. Let's take this number 0.3325 I need it to be, 0.34 How do i do that. Do I have to write a routine that checks if there is a third digit or what. The number is calculated for the UK VAT system at 17.5% i need the number rounded up to only 2 decimal places. Yes I have checked perlfaq4. Simple problem seems impossible answer. Any ideas Gary [/QUOTE]
