round

Rounds to nearest integer. For numeric, ties are broken by rounding away from zero. For double precision, the tie-breaking behavior is platform dependent, but “round to nearest even” is the most common rule.

English manual coverage begins with PostgreSQL 7.1. Source history and runtime observations have their own recorded version boundaries.
