Usage

This template rounds parameter 1 by parameter 2 decimal places (goes the other way for negative rounding) and includes trailing zeros.

For example, rounding by 1 gives 1 decimal digit, rounding by 0 gives integers, or rounding by -2 gives the amount in hundreds. Scientific notation is displayed for numbers greater than or equal to 1Template:E, or less than 1Template:E.

Examples

As with #expr, the total number of significant digits is not more than 14:

The second parameter, precision, should be an integer. Non-integer may give unexpected result.
Non-numeric input will result in an error message.
