That certainly would help, but an essential point is to understand how
you *want* to round these values.

As this point has come up several times, I have a quick quiz for this
list. Without running the code, what are the results of the following
expressions in Lua 5.2?

  string.rep("a", 2.7)
  string.format("%d", 2.7)
  string.rep("a", 2.3)
  string.format("%d", 2.3)
