To be picky, rounding a fixed point value to less bits is a very common

I find it quite odd that round 3.5 returns 4, but round 2.5 returns 2.
I always thought that round x.5 returns x+1 (instead of the
even integer).
That's the behaviour in most math books and programming languages
It looks odd to me too. I think
