Reading the JM 18.4 reference software code I stumbled upon the following expression:

return ((int) floor(nbits * p_quad->m_Qc + 0.5))

The types are:

int nbits
int p_quad->m_Qc

Why would you add 0.5 and then floor the multiplication of two integers? Inspecting the results, they are the same as the multiplication alone.

    In general, floor(x + 0.5) can be used to emulate round(x). However, this is only useful if x can take on non-integer values, so it seems superfluous in your case!
