Answer 1

Some thing like this should also work

import numpy as np    

def proper_round(a):
    '''
    given any real number 'a' returns an integer closest to 'a'
    '''
    a_ceil = np.ceil(a)
    a_floor = np.floor(a)
    if np.abs(a_ceil - a) < np.abs(a_floor - a):
        return int(a_ceil)
    else:
        return int(a_floor)
