That's the whole point of round (). If you tell what you wish it
 to do, with sample data and desired results,  we can probably
 suggest an approach.  Or you could look at the message I posted
 some time ago, suggesting adding one before dividing by
 2.

Sometimes the best answer is to truncate by converting to int. But
 the increment is frequently needed as well.
