Feb/March 2023 Question 10 (Computer Science 0478) Help PLEASE

[Random_Guy]

hey guys!
So, I was doing the practical paper for the feb/march paper, I need some help with this question:


Basically, my doubt is that do we presume that there is already a rounding function?
if there is, can we assume that it exists anywhere (like not only this question)?
Because in the marking scheme it makes use of the function ROUND().
So I am kind of confused

Please reply and help me out,
Thanks

I'm pretty sure the ROUND() function is like a library routine in a programming language so similarly in pseudocode,i think it kinda already exists anywhere as like a part of pseudocode.
So yeah, there is already a ROUND() function that exists anywhere (even beyond the question )BUT it's not automatically applied to B unless you actually like CALL the function ( the question says "when B is rounded to the nearest whole number" so the question is like hinting to you use ROUND() for B to turn it from decimal to integer because otherwise, B can't just randomly turn into an integer without you doing something to it) using ROUND(B,0). I hope all that rambling makes sense

Oh I see, thanks!
and yes, the rambling made sense
