How to round float in multiple of 5

Question

I got this number 1.12412 and I want to round it to 1.12415 or 1.12410 (muliple of 5 in last decimal)

If using the Round(X,4) function I get 1.1241 (4 decimals).

Is there a function that can make that happen? Thanks!

There is an answer in stack but using c# not python

So if the last digit is <= 2 then it shall become 0, when it's > 2 it shall become 5? — Jonas, Jul 01 '20 at 08:37

My way to do that is to specify rounding unit first and then simple trick as below:

import numpy as np
rounding_unit = 0.00005
np.round(1.12412/rounding_unit) * rounding_unit
