Behaviour of VBA ROUND function
 

Hi all,

I have a question of dealing with VBA ROUND function, the question is that
it doesn't do the rounding consistently.

For example:

ROUND(100.5) - 100
ROUND(100.6) - 101
ROUND(100.55,1) - 100.6

Why is that? Is it a bug? Please advise.

How about rounding to the next even value. Wouldn't that be consistent?
? round(101.5)
102
? round(100.5)
100
? round(101.5)
102
? round(102.5)
102
? round(103.5)
104
? round(100.55,1)
100.6
? round(100.45,1)
100.4

Is it a bug?
No
