duration: Y = round (D)
duration: Y = round (D, unit)

Round to the nearest integer time unit for duration arrays.

Y = round (D) rounds each element of the duration array D to the nearest integer number of seconds to that element. In case of a tie, return the one further away from zero.

Y = round (D, unit) rounds each element of the duration array D to the nearest integer number of the specified unit of time to that element. unit must be one of the following values:

  • 'seconds' (default)
  • 'minutes'
  • 'hours'
  • 'days'
  • 'years'

Source Code: duration

Example: 1

round rounds a duration. With no unit it rounds to the nearest second; pass a unit to round to whole hours, minutes, and so on.

 d = hours (2.4)
d =
  duration

   2.4 hr
 round (d, 'hours')
ans =
  duration

   2 hr

Default (nearest second):

 round (seconds (90.7))
ans =
  duration

   91 sec
