Par2: Swedish rounding 2005-03-24 -- Jorg Fakler > A fun fact about New Zealand: The monetary system revolves around Swedish
> rounding. Back around 6 years ago when the switch to plastic money happened,
> New Zealand got rid of the penny and instituted a crazy rounding scheme.
> Here's how it goes: middle numbers (3, 4, 5, 6, and 7) all round to 5, and
> end numbers (8, 9, 0, 1, and 2) round to 0. So something that's 3.97 rounds
> to 3.95. Got it? Good, you're on your way to becoming Kiwi.
