    Excel maintains 15 figures in its numbers, but they are not always accurate; mathematically, the bottom line should be the same as the top line, in 'fp-math' the step '1 + 1/9000' leads to a rounding up as the first bit of the 14 bit tail '10111000110010' of the mantissa falling off the table when adding 1 is a '1', this up-rounding is not undone when subtracting the 1 again, since there is no ...

    This variant of the round-to-nearest method is also called convergent rounding, statistician's rounding, Dutch rounding, Gaussian rounding, odd–even rounding, [6] or bankers' rounding. [ 7 ] This is the default rounding mode used in IEEE 754 operations for results in binary floating-point formats.

  4. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    Round-by-chop: The base-expansion of is truncated after the ()-th digit. This rounding rule is biased because it always moves the result toward zero. Round-to-nearest: () is set to the nearest floating-point number to . When there is a tie, the floating-point number whose last stored digit is even (also, the last digit, in binary form, is equal ...

    For example, to round 1.25 to 2 significant figures: Round half away from zero rounds up to 1.3. This is the default rounding method implied in many disciplines [citation needed] if the required rounding method is not specified. Round half to even, which rounds to the nearest even number. With this method, 1.25 is rounded down to 1.2.

  6. Round number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round_number

    A round number is an integer that ends with one or more "0"s (zero-digit) in a given base. [1] So, 590 is rounder than 592, but 590 is less round than 600. In both technical and informal language, a round number is often interpreted to stand for a value or values near to the nominal value expressed.

    An apportionment method is denoted by a multivalued function (,); a particular -solution is a single-valued function (,) which selects a single apportionment from (,). A partial apportionment method is an apportionment method for specific fixed values of n {\displaystyle n} and h {\displaystyle h} ; it is a multivalued function M ∗ ( t ...

    Sturges's rule [1] is a method to choose the number of bins for a histogram.Given observations, Sturges's rule suggests using ^ = + ⁡ bins in the histogram. This rule is widely employed in data analysis software including Python [2] and R, where it is the default bin selection method.
