Limiting precision

Is there any easy way to limit precision in mathematical operations with eval? I've been requested to limit everything to a maximum of two decimal places.

Do you want 2 digits out from it, or do you really need the internal numbers to be cut?

It has formatting operators and so on, so you can just do eg |eval field=round(.... , 2)

I was able to implement it using the eval round() command. Thanks to anyone who looked into it for me, your help is, as always, appreciated.
