9.3.107 NINT (A [,KIND])

Description:  Returns the nearest integer to the argument.  
Class:  Elemental function; Generic 
Arguments:  A Must be of type real. 
  KIND (opt) Must be a scalar integer initialization expression. 
Results:  The result type is integer. If KIND is present, the kind parameter is that specified by KIND; otherwise, see the following table for the kind parameter. If A is greater than zero, NINT (A) has the value INT (A + 0.5); if A is less than or equal to zero, NINT (A) has the value INT (A - 0.5).

Specific Name  Argument Type  Result Type 
ININT  REAL(4)  INTEGER(2) 
NINT[1,2]  REAL(4)  INTEGER(4) 
KNINT  REAL(4)  INTEGER(8) 
IIDNNT  REAL(8)  INTEGER(2) 
IDNINT[2,3]  REAL(8)  INTEGER(4) 
KIDNNT  REAL(8)  INTEGER(8) 
IIQNNT  REAL(16)  INTEGER(2) 
IQNINT[2,4]  REAL(16)  INTEGER(4) 
KIQNNT[5]  REAL(16)  INTEGER(8) 

[1] Or JNINT.
[2] The setting of compiler options specifying real size can affect NINT, IDNINT, and IQNINT.
[3] Or JIDNNT. For compatibility with older versions of Fortran, IDNINT can also be specified as a generic function.
[4] Or JIQNNT. For compatibility with older versions of Fortran, IQNINT can also be specified as a generic function.
[5] This specific function cannot be passed as an actual argument.

Examples

NINT (3.879) has the value 4.

NINT (-2.789) has the value -3.
