Ah yes, you’re right. toFixed() does the same thing as my roundToPrecision() function. I wasn’t aware of that one.

Why not just use .toFixed() ?

Cheers! Google found me here after a search for FLASH ACTIONSCRIPT ROUND 10 and whilst I did not need the Class entirely, the method for rounding to a nearest number was priceless. So simple if you know the math.

Brilliant. THANKS!

Sorry guys, I didn’t mention that there’s some minor setup needed on your part. For one, you need to put the file into a directory com/joshtynjala/utils and usage is as Detrus describes.

ok here, so if I create all these folders and call the ActionSript text file MathUtils.as

first import

import com.joshtynjala.utils.*;

then usage is

MathUtils.roundDownToNearest(3.3993, 4)

i forgot to include MathUtils. before the function names cuz i’m not into packaging OOP yet.

Im having some trouble using the class, even though I import the class, the Flash IDE keeps telling me the method is undefined.
