Follow-up Comment #10, bug #55682 (project octave):

*Sigh*

It is very clean that way, but I had hoped to limit the re-writing of the API.
 This will require propagating a two-input round form up through libinterp and
back down in to liboctave.  Presumably we should also maintain a legacy
zero-input form, or arrange for defaults in the function prototype for the
2-input form such that it can be called with no arguments.

Can't use ceil() in place of round because it always rounds in the direction
of positive infinity.


ceil (-1.5) == -1
round (-1.5) == -2
