Hi STATA lister, tried to look for help round but did not understand it
well.
how to round variable (weight) to have it 0 decimal, e.g. 5 instead of 4.20?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the help for -round()- reads difficultly at first, then it helps to play
with the function to get to know it better. It won't round 4.20 up to 5,
however. I've used -display- below, but it requires -generate- to see what
really goes on with -round()-.
. display round(4.2, 1)
4
. display ceil(4.2)
5
