round() — Advanced Examples

Rounds a number to a given number of decimal places

round() protocol implementation

Implementing the protocol that round() uses under the hood.

python

# round() - implementing the protocol
class Custom:
    def __round__(self):
        return "custom result"

obj = Custom()
print(round(obj))

Understanding the dunder methods that round() calls helps you customize behavior for your own classes.

Handling unusual inputs and edge cases.

python

# round() edge cases
print("Edge case handling for round()")

# Type checking
print(type(42))

Knowing these edge cases prevents subtle bugs in production.
