[jira] [Commented] (MATH-1089) Precision.round() returns different results when provided negative zero as double or float

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1089?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13874004#comment-13874004 ] 

Thomas Neidhart commented on MATH-1089:
---------------------------------------

This not only affects negative zero, but all negative values that would be rounded to 0.
In these cases the result should be negative zero to be consistent with the result of Precision.round(float, x).

> Precision.round(-0.0d, x) = 0.0
> Precision.round(-0.0f, x) = -0.0
> After discussion on the mailinglist, the result should always be -0.0.
