RoundUp Function - Which Will Round A Number UP To The Specified Decimal Precision

Apr 29, 2009

I need a function which will Round a number UP to the specified decimal precision, exactly the same as how Excel's RoundUp function works:

Roundup(dblVal, intDecPlaces)

So I need the following:

Roundup(0.896523, 4)
would return
0.8966

However, everything i've tried/found simply rounds to the nearest whole integer, or returns a normal rounded value, hence the above would return
0.8965

I've tried the following:

Math.Round(dblval, intPrecision, midpointrounding.awayfromzero)
' and
Math.Round(dblval, intPrecision, midpointrounding.toeven)

And even custom functions, such as:

Public Function RoundUp(ByVal varValue As Object, _
ByVal iNum As Integer) As Double

'ignore the data types here, I was playing to see 'if changing any of the data types would swing 'the results (knowing full well they wouldnt make 'a difference, thats how fed up with this I am!)

Dim lNum As Long, xVal As Double, xVar As Object

xVar = Fix(varValue)

[CODE]...

I've even looked at converting this to a string, looking at the Xth decimal place, and incrementing it up by 1, then converting it back to a double, while this works (sort of) it seems to be a very roughshod way of doing it, and I'd rather do it mathematically than with lots of data conversion.

Round Decimal Point Up To Nearest Whole Number?

May 14, 2011

I'm creating a maths program and when it comes to division it's giving me .34216 as answeres which isn't what I want.I was thinking declaring the textbox the answer appears in as a single.It's not working out though and it's still using decimal points.I was told by my teacher to declare it as an integer so I tried that too, it's not working out also. I figured based on the code, I would be declaring array3() as the single or integer since that's the textbox the answer will be output into. [code]

Setup A Function Involving Multiplying A Cell By A Set Number And Then Having The Result Round To The Nearest 10?

Apr 22, 2009

I am working in excel trying to setup a function involving multiplying a cell by a set number and then having the result round to the nearest 10. Here's the beginning of my function statement fx=e3*1.026. say the result is 8654, I need it to round to 8650. Also if it comes back 8655, I need it to round to 8660. I have about 2,000 records I need to do this to so I was hoping that one formula or statement could be used for all my data.

LINQ Query With Sum And Group By Is Adding Decimal Precision

Aug 24, 2009

I am trying to do a simple summary of table data using a LINQ query.a regular SQL Query looks like:[code]This query works fine and returns the correct results.[code]This LINQ query returns the incorrect results some of the time. Off by .01 in most cases.The "value" column is of type Numeric (12,2) in the database.Now when I show the values from the Sum in a msgbox I get extra precision and thus incorrect results as my end result because of rounding.For example I get 835.18 + 54.62 = 889.80960 from the above LINQ query.I am running Visual Studio 2008 9.0.30729.1 SP on Vista 64Bit with .NET 3.5 SP1.
