Of course it will the same, if you use '+1" to it.
That is why i present the plain 'int', using the same number (28.9) to show him that no matter what you have after the '.' it will round it to the smaller number.
so if you add 1 to it, only then it will round it to the bigger number.
Is it so hard to understand this?
of course, if he has more than one numbers in variables, and he wants to check them, he will use '+.5' .
I just gave him an easy way to do what he want..
Sorry, i though i wouldn't have to explain such a simple thing
