|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var roundn = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/roundn' );
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### roundn( x, n )
|
||
|
|
||
|
Rounds a `numeric` value to the nearest multiple of `10^n`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
// Round a value to 2 decimal places:
|
||
|
var v = roundn( 3.141592653589793, -2 );
|
||
|
// returns 3.14
|
||
|
|
||
|
// If n = 0, `roundn` behaves like `round`:
|
||
|
v = roundn( 3.141592653589793, 0 );
|
||
|
// returns 3.0
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Round a value to the nearest thousand:
|
||
|
v = roundn( 12368.0, 3 );
|
||
|
// returns 12000.0
|
||
|
```

## Notes
|
||
|
|
||
|
- When operating on [floating-point numbers][ieee754] in bases other than `2`, rounding to specified digits can be **inexact**. For example,
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var x = 0.2 + 0.1;
|
||
|
// returns 0.30000000000000004
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Should round to 0.3...
|
||
|
var v = roundn( x, -16 );
|
||
|
// returns 0.3000000000000001
|
||
|
```
