Hi,

I need fsolve to round down its solutions but the 'Rounding" operator doesnt work . Here's a simple example

restart;
Digits:=5:
Rounding=-infinity:
fsolve(sin(x)=0, x=2..4);

The answer is 3.1416 but I need it to return 3.1415. There also doesnt seem to be a command to obtain the nth digit of a number, aka. digit(3, 3.14) = 4 in case I wanted to write a quick procedure to round down the answer.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
