What It Does

This function takes a numeric value and rounds it to the nearest designated place. The PLACE parameter's value determines that place: 0 for whole numbers, positive values for each place after the decimal point (1 is tenths, 2 is hundredths, ...), and negative values for places before it (-1 is tens, -2 is hundreds, ...). The input value is interpreted as a floating-point number, and the place value is interpreted as an integer.


	a = fix(15.25, 0);     // a = 15.0
	a = fix(15.25, -1);    // a = 20.0
	a = fix(15.25, 1);     // a = 15.3

Calling fix(X, 0) is equivalent to:


	round(X)
