The great thing about Wikipedia is that you can add material...   :)


BTW, speaking of Wikipedia, even though the fundraiser is over, anyone who
didn't donate can still donate via PayPal, Check, or direct deposit.

How VBA rounds a number depends on the number's internal representation.
You cannot always predict how it will round when the rounding digit is 5.
If you want a rounding function that rounds according to predictable rules,
you should write your own.
