 +The second optional parameter of the **Round** function is the number of decimal places to round to.  If no value is provided then 0 will be used and the value will be rounded up to the nearest integer value. If the number is positive then the rounding will include that number of digits after the decimal. ​ If the number is negative then the number will round with that many zeros on the left of the decimal. ​

 +
 +===== Example =====
 +
 +For example ROUND(-5.56) would result in -6 and ROUND(5.56) will result in 6.  Using positive precision for example ROUND(5.33,​1) would result in 5.3 and using negative precision ROUND(12.33,​-1) would result in 10.
