You could try this (from a script I use for my phone bill):
from decimal import Decimal as d
def roundDecimal(num, prec):
return d(num).quantize(d("1e%d" % (-prec)))
where `prec` is the number of places after the decimal point.
I'm sure there is a better solutions and someone will tell it, thereby
teaching us both. ;-)
