Where you're rounding up to the nearest integer:
roundedNo = Int(number) + (FRAC(number) != 0);
Int always rounds down (ie. truncates) so the last conditional will
add one if there's any fractional component (if you always just add
one then a round integer will always be incremented by one as well).
If you want rounding to some other decimal place, then you can do the
multiply first divide later thing as Dingo mentioned below. Or if you
want to do it Tomasz's way, then:
frp = number % 0.25;
roundedNo = number - frp + (frp != 0)*0.25;
In this, frp is the same as the FRAC part above for integers, and
"number - frp" is the same as the Int part for integers. Since a
conditional test gives one if true, and we only want to add 0.25, this
can be achieved by multiplying the conditional result by 0.25 (haven't
tried this, but it should work).
