decimalPlaces problem

Hi all,

Has anyone noticed that the decimalPlaces function seems to round
incorrectly for small negative numbers? Here is an example of what I mean:

load "$NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscripts/csm/contributed.ncl"
example = -0.041
print(example)
print(decimalPlaces(example,2,True))

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Matt
