Question about round?

General Usage
1

Dear all,

In Matlab ,

>> round(2.5)

ans =

     3

But in Julia,

julia> round(2.5)
2.0

If I want to get the same result which is from Matlab, how to write the code in Julia?

2 
julia> round(2.5, RoundNearestTiesAway)
3.0

Julia defaults to round ties to even. You can use round(x, RoundDown) to round to take the floor. The rounding modes are RoundDown,RoundNearestTiesUp,RoundUp,RoundFromZero,RoundNearestTiesAway, and RoundToZero
