Re: format-number round and negative

[keshlam]

I think the expected behavior is the IEEE 754 round-to-nearest rule, which I *think* says that if two equally good choices exist, the one closer to positive infinity will be taken.

One classic workaround is to take absolute value, round, then restore the sign...
