Yes! I keep VB3 for nostalgic reasons. VB people used to have mega
arguments about the fact that VB3 has the "fair" rounding
discussed in this thread.

Here is a command (first line) and the response (second line) in the
immediate command window of VB3:

? CInt(1.5); CInt(2.5)
 2  2

Here, "?" means "print the value of". CInt is
"convert to integer". This shows that 1.5 is rounded up, while
2.5 is rounded down.

VB has many mind-boggling features. Integer division (\) is one:

? 1.5 \ 1; 2.5 \ 1
 2  2

Here we see that integer division cleverly rounds the values BEFORE the
division. A humble C programmer finds this behaviour quite unfair.
