Specify 2 as the rounding criteria in the ROUND() function:

data a;
  i = .5; j = 1.5; k = 2.5;
  array num _numeric_;
  do over num;
     rounded = round(num,2);
     put num= rounded=;
  end;
run;

Trying to recreate in SAS what Cint does in vbscript.  Basically what
I need is to be able to round to nearest even number. ( i.e. 0.5--> 0
and 1.5 -->2 etc.) any ideas?
