Heck no.  The int() and round() functions have been in Lotus and Excel for an eternity and nobody has a problem learning what those functions do.

Also, the extra argument for round(f, n) makes it clear that it can return other floats rounded to n-digits.

I've taught a lot of classes to spreadsheet users and have observed that people get it right away.
