Move it from a FLOAT field to an INTEGER field. This will truncate the decimals.
Now subtract the integer value from the float variable, which will leave you just the insignificant digits.
Then flip a coin. Heads you round up, tails you round down.
You must use a different coin each time you call the algorithm, or you'll end up with anomalies in the quantum mechanics system function.

Well, infinity is not a real #; so you can't round it off. You simply put the symbol.

If you have an irrational fraction as a decimal, like 22/7 (Pi), you can put 3.14159.....
IF it repeats, then its 3.33 with a line over the repeating section.

But the rule of rounding is generally .50 and up go up; .49 round down.
