RE: ROUND() Results
Yes, that is the expected result. Here's why. 7979*464664664 = 3707559354056, which is a 13-digit integer, as can be verified in CAS. Home view rounds all numeric calculations to a 12-digit mantissa, which as you saw is 3.70755935406 × 10^12. Rounding this to "two decimal places" has no effect, since it has no fractional part. If you want to round it to two significant digits instead, use -2 instead of 2 in the ROUND command.
