MATLAB: How to round to nearest ‘k’ decimal place in MATLAB 7.8 (R2009a)

Question

MATLAB's ROUND function only rounds to the nearest integer, but I want to round to the 3rd decimal place, for example.

Answer 1

The ability to ROUND to the ‘k’ decimal place (for example the 3rd decimal place) is not available in MATLAB 7.8 (R2009a).

To work around this issue use this command:

x = 1.2345;
xround = round(x*1000)/1000;
