round_half_up

In base R <code><a href="/link/round()?package=janitor&version=2.2.0" data-mini-rdoc="janitor::round()">round()</a></code>, halves are rounded to even, e.g., 12.5 and 11.5 are both rounded to 12. This function rounds 12.5 to 13 (assuming <code>digits = 0</code>). Negative halves are rounded away from zero, e.g., -0.5 is rounded to -1.
This may skew subsequent statistical analysis of the data, but may be desirable in certain contexts. This function is implemented exactly from <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/12688836">https://stackoverflow.com/a/12688836</a>; see that question and comments for discussion of this issue.

The main janitor functions can: perfectly format data.frame column
names; provide quick counts of variable combinations (i.e., frequency
tables and crosstabs); and explore duplicate records. Other janitor functions
nicely format the tabulation results. These tabulate-and-report functions
approximate popular features of SPSS and Microsoft Excel. This package
follows the principles of the "tidyverse" and works well with the pipe function
%>%. janitor was built with beginning-to-intermediate R users in mind and is
optimized for user-friendliness.
