Hi all,

Just a quick question - is it standard practice for a c/c++ compiler (such
as DJGPP) to round up-always, down-always or to the nearest-integer when
casting a double to an int?  If there is no standard for rounding with
regard to casting doubles to ints, would it be best to use floor(), ceil()
and round() just in case (for cross-compiler compatibility)?

Thanks,

Jase.
