[Mono-list] -- Math.cs --

[dietmar]

Marcus just pointed out the we cant use round(), because it does not
conform to IEEE rounding conventions. Try the following test:

using System;

class Test {

	static void Main () {
		Console.WriteLine (Math.Round((double)2.5));
		Console.WriteLine (Math.Round((double)3.5));
		Console.WriteLine (Math.Round((double)4.5));
		Console.WriteLine (Math.Round((double)5.5));
	}
}

Result is:

2
4
4
6
