It's also a left over from what older dive computers used to do: they stored just one temperature value for a dive and that was the lowest temperature measured (for many) or the temperature at the deepest spot (for some).</div><div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div id="divtagdefaultwrapper" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: 12pt; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" class=""><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="">is recorded as a 27 degree dive, but you can see there were only a few moments when 27 degrees was recorded.

And if you look at the dive list on the above grab, why do some depth values not get rounded whilst others do?<br class=""></div></div></blockquote><br class=""></div><div>It's a matter of perceived precision (and certainly debatable). Showing 102.2m seems silly - actually, in general showing "10cm" resolution on depth is silly - is that your left arm, your right arm, or your toes? Yet not showing a decimal for single digits (6m, 7m) causes people to tell you that you are over-simplifying. So we compromise and show a decimal down to 20m (IIRC) and no decimal after that. I agree that this looks inconsistent - but I'm not sure what a more reasonable solution would look like.</div><div><br class=""></div><div>/D</div><br class=""></body></html>
