Title: Is there HSPICE function that rounds a parameter's value to the nearest integer?

Hi,

I know there is an HSPICE function int(x) that returns the integer part of parameter x.

But, is there a similar function that rounds a parameter value to the nearest integer? For example, if the param value is 1.9, the function should return 2.

Thank you.

I've just realized that this can be done using the same int() function.

To round x to the nearest integer (assuming x is positive), we use int(x+0.5).

I hope someone will find this useful in the future.

Some simulator I was using recently has "nint" for nearest integer.
