Summary description: Fixed-point arithmetic with two decimal places
Announcement text:
### Added - Option `rounding` with two choices each providing several synonyms (issue #2): - `half-away-from-zero`, `commercial`, `DIN-1333` - `half-to-even`, `mathematical`, `IEEE-754` Rounding is applied only to floating-point expressions. ### Changed - Documentation partially rearranged; new section 'Option settings' - The default rounding mode for floating-point expressions is now `half-away-from-zero`. To restore the previous default, use `\didecsetup{rounding=half-to-even}`.

The intended use case is (personal) bookkeeping.
