NINT (A [,KIND])

9.3.103 NINT (A [,KIND])

Description:	Returns the nearest integer to the argument.
Class:	Elemental function
Arguments:	A	Must be of type real.
	KIND (opt)	Must be a scalar integer initialization expression.
Results:	The result type is integer. If KIND is present, the kind parameter is that specified by KIND; otherwise, see the following table for the kind parameter. If A is greater than zero, NINT (A) has the value INT (A + 0.5); if A is less than or equal to zero, NINT (A) has the value INT (A - 0.5). The setting of compiler options specifying integer size can affect this function.
