I'm just curious.. why do you need to round? You should avoid using floating point numbers on a robot's processor, since it's easy to run out of memory on those things. Stick to integers if at all possible. Remember that you don't need pinpoint precision when running the robot.

Ye i noe wat u mean about the memory running out... For the auto mode i just want a delay for seconds.... my code is using floating numbers.. and i dont want that... i just want a insingle incrementing integer..

my code:

int i = 1;
static int time_i;

i=i+1; // This will increment 'i' by the value 1 every loop
time_i = ((i * 262) / 10000);

But thats going to caculate a floating number... i would just like a rounded integer from that sorta type of logic.... srry if i seem confusing....
