change in round() function
Login
Ah I see.  The round() function did not change, but the printf functions it uses did and they do the heavy lifting.  I enclosed the function from the 3.31.1 src below.

Do you think that this change makes SQLite sufficient for most financial calculations, to the cent?

Thanks Keith!  I am so glad to see you are still on this forum after the mailling list was deprecated!
