I don't know, but have you looked in the Torque script reference document?

Edit: Here's the document link:

mfloor(%number) rounds down
mceil(%number) rounds up

Or for your more traditional rounding function, you can use the following:

function mRound(%num)
{

    if ((%num-mFloor(%num) >= 0.5)
    {
        %value = mCeil(%num);
    }
    else
    {
        %value = mFloor(%num);
    }    

return %value;
}

You would then just use:

%val = mRound(74.52);
