How to round a Double to the nearest Int in swift

Question

I m trying to make a calculator of growth rate  Double  that will round the result to the nearest Integer and recalculate from there  as such   let firstUsers   10 0 let growth   0 1 var users   firstUsers var week   0   while users  lt  14       println  week   week  has   users  users       users    users   growth     week    1     but I ve been unable so far   EDIT I kinda did it like so   var firstUsers   10 0 let growth   0 1 var users Int   Int firstUsers  var week   0   while users  lt   14       println  week   week  has   users  users       firstUsers    firstUsers   growth     users   Int firstUsers      week    1     Although I don t mind that it is always rounding down  I don t like it because firstUsers had to become a variable and change throughout the program  in order to make the next calculation   which I don t want it to happen

There is a round available in the Foundation library  it s actually in Darwin  but Foundation imports Darwin and most of the time you ll want to use Foundation instead of using Darwin directly    import Foundation  users   round users    Running your code in a playground and then calling   print round users     Outputs      15 0   round   always rounds up when the decimal place is  gt    5 and down when it s  lt   5  standard rounding   You can use floor   to force rounding down  and ceil   to force rounding up    If you need to round to a specific place  then you multiply by pow 10 0  number of places   round  and then divide by pow 10  number of places    Round to 2 decimal places   let numberOfPlaces   2 0 let multiplier   pow 10 0  numberOfPlaces  let num   10 12345 let rounded   round num   multiplier    multiplier print rounded    Outputs      10 12   Note  Due to the way floating point math works  rounded may not always be perfectly accurate  It s best to think of it more of an approximation of rounding  If you re doing this for display purposes  it s better to use string formatting to format the number rather than using math to round it

You may also want to check whether the double is higher than the max Int value before trying to convert the value to an Int    let number   Double infinity if number  gt   Double integerLiteral  Int64 max      let rounded   Int max   else     let rounded   Int number rounded

Swift 3  If you want to round to a certain digit number e g  5 678434 -  5 68 you can just combine the round   or roundf   function with a multiplication   let value Float   5 678434 let roundedValue   roundf value   100    100 print roundedValue    5 68

A very easy solution worked for me     if  62   50    0          var number   62   50   1    adding 1 is doing the actual  round up        number contains value 2

You can also extend FloatingPoint in Swift 3 as follow   extension FloatingPoint       func rounded to n  Int  - gt  Self           let n   Self n          return  self   n  rounded     n           324 0 rounded to  5       325

To round a double to the nearest integer  just use round     var x   3 7 x round      x   4 0   If you don t want to modify the original value  then use rounded     let x   3 7 let y   x rounded      y   4 0  x   3 7   As one might expect  or might not   a number like 3 5 is rounded up and a number like -3 5 is rounded down  If you need different rounding behavior than that  you can use one of the rounding rules  For example   var x   3 7 x round  towardZero     3 0   If you need an actual Int then just cast it to one  but only if you are certain that the Double won t be greater than Int max    let myInt   Int myDouble rounded      Notes   This answer is completely rewritten  My old answer dealt with the C math functions like round  lround  floor  and ceil  However  now that Swift has this functionality built in  I can no longer recommend using those functions  Thanks to  dfri for pointing this out to me  Check out  dfri s excellent answer here  I also did something similar for rounding a CGFloat
