Re: Round to the tenth

["Bob Kohlndorfer" <bkohlndorfer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

What would happen with your example if you started with 200?
Divide by 10 gives you 20,  add  1 gives you 21 multiply by 10 gives you
210.
That is not right.

OrgValue     DIV    10    TempValue
                    MVR        Remainder

Remainder    IFGT   0
                    Eval    NewValue=10*(TempValue + 1)
                    Else
                    Eval    NewValue=10*TempValue
                    EndIf

The trouble with that is a number like 21 would be rounded to 20.  I believe
the request was to round to the next higher ten so 21 would round to 30.

I can't think of any way to do this other than:
EVAL TempNumber =
((YourNumber / 10) + 1) * 10

TempNumber would have 0 decimal positions.

Hope that helps.
