round() for float in C++

Question

I need a simple floating point rounding function, thus:

double round(double);

round(0.1) = 0
round(-0.1) = 0
round(-0.9) = -1

I can find

Answer 1

// Convert the float to a string
// We might use stringstream, but it looks like it truncates the float to only
//5 decimal points (maybe that's what you want anyway =P)

float MyFloat = 5.11133333311111333;
float NewConvertedFloat = 0.0;
string FirstString = " ";
string SecondString = " ";
stringstream ss (stringstream::in | stringstream::out);
ss << MyFloat;
FirstString = ss.str();

// Take out how ever many decimal places you want
// (this is a string it includes the point)
SecondString = FirstString.substr(0,5);
//whatever precision decimal place you want

// Convert it back to a float
stringstream(SecondString) >> NewConvertedFloat;
cout << NewConvertedFloat;
system("pause");

It might be an inefficient dirty way of conversion but heck, it works lol. And it's good, because it applies to the actual float. Not just affecting the output visually.
