Ok. Then, why -35.6 does not round up to -35 ? #Round(-35.6)# actually shows 
-36. That kinda confuses me.

Thanks,
Pine

Because it is closer to -36, it is the mirror image of +35.4 rounding to 35.  
The middle .5 is the special case that is always rounded up (ie in the positive 
direction).  Rounding from -35.5 to -36 would be down (ie in the negative 
direction).  It all goes back to that number line thing.

-5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5

Rounding of 1/2 will always be to the right, the positive direction.
