Issue #5272 has been updated by Tomoyuki Chikanaga. I've found that TestFloat#test_round fails after r33186 on i686-linux. For (4294967295.8).round, 32bit version ruby returns 4294967295, while 64bit version(x86_64-linux) returns correctly 4294967296. It seems that when result value is Bignum Float#round works like floor(). ---------------------------------------- Backport #5272: Float#round doesn't round big values http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/5272 Author: Marc-Andre Lafortune Status: Open Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: 1.9.3 For large enough values (outside of Fixnum range), Float#round does not round at all but simply truncates: 2.999999999999999e20.round(-20) # => 200000000000000000000 Fixed in trunk, but would be nice to backport for Ruby 1.9.3. -- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
