Rounding up or truncation?

So, round or truncate? I am not talking about prices in a shop, but measurements. Depends what you're going to do with the result. If machining two components, say, and you know whether the fit should be tight or loose you use this to adjust your numbers. If these components are going to be a shrink or push fit then you'd make the inner one larger and the outer one smaller. If there's to be a sliding fit then the reverse would apply. -- Scott Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket? |
