Function for rounding up Can't Post
Is there a function to round up decimal numbers, or to have a number to two decimal places?

If so, could someone give me an example.

Many Regards,
Ben Chivers

my $num = '12312.325235';

print sprintf "%.2f", $num;

You could also use POSIX::ceil for rounding up.

printf "%.2f", $num;

At last with an effort he spoke, and wondered to hear his own words, as if some other will was using his small voice. "I will take the Ring," he said, "though I do not know the way."
