Trouble with using the round function is that it can lead to incorrect results, as the following example demonstrates. A better(?) solution for what you want to do is to use the Int() or Intz() function.

data r ;

     input x ;

     y = round(x,1);

     z1 = Int(x);

     z2 = Intz(x);

datalines;
