pbdDMAT (version 0.2-3)

Round: Rounding of Numbers

Description

Extensions of R rounding functions for distributed matrices.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'ddmatrix':
ceiling(x)
## S3 method for class 'ddmatrix':
floor(x)
## S3 method for class 'ddmatrix':
round(x, digits = 0)

Arguments

x

numeric distributed matrix

digits

integer indicating the number of decimal places (round()) or significant digits (signif()) to be used. Negative values are allowed (see 'Details').

Value

• Returns a distributed matrix.

Details

Rounding to a negative number of digits means rounding to a power of ten, so for example round(x, digits = -2) rounds to the nearest hundred.
