but i discovered PowerToys run today. which lets you run lots of different things in a quick popup window. and one of them is unit converter. I need to do this fairly regularly for different things (including working on GF designs, sometimes).
In human history, various unit systems were developed and used in different regions and cultures. Currently, the global standard of measurement is the International System of Units (SI), which is a modern form of the metric system. Although SI is intended for global use, it has not been fully adopted, and some other systems of measurement are still used in parts of the world.
The intent of this site is to provide a convenient means to convert between the various units of measurement within different systems, as well as to provide a basic understanding of the systems currently in use, and how they interact. Refer to the Common Unit Systems page for further information.
After constantly using a calculator to convert between Ether units i thought it would neat toimplement the EthereumJS-Unitslibrary and BigNumber library on awebsite for everyone to use.There is a simple and full converterpage, since the majority wouldn'tbother for any other units than Ether, Gwei and Wei.
I'm new to JavaScript. Trying to build, for practice, a simple unit converter kind of like the one that google uses for converting kilos to pounds, inches to meters, etc. I'd like to have an input box for entering the number value. After that, two lists in the HTML files so i can choose in first the unit i convert from; and on the second the unit i convert to. Maybe is an obvious one but i have not been able to find an answer to this problem. I'll post the last code/approach i tried.
And finally, you are checking the selected units outside of the conversion button click handler, so they won't be updated when the user changes the selections in the dropdown. Move the corresponding lines which set value, convertedOuput and madeSelection_1 and madeSelection_2 into the Conversion function. (Explanation: Right now, the code is run once upon page load, so the values loaded there will always be the an empty string coming from the Choose option option. Afterwards, this part is run every time the button is clicked, so the values will be up to date.)
Use this Conversion Calculator to convert between commonly used units. Select the current unit in the left column, the desired unit in the right column, and enter a value in the left column to generate the resulting conversion. A full list of unit conversions is available at unitconverters.net.
Historically, many different systems of units have been used, where a system of units is defined as a collection of units of measurement with rules that relate them to each other. A unit of measurement is a defined magnitude of a quantity that it used as a standard for measurement for the same kind of quantity, such as measurements of length, weight, and volume.
In the past, many systems of measurement were defined on a local level, and could be based on factors as arbitrary as the length of a king's thumb. While this may work on a local level, when considering trade, as well as science, having systems of units based on units that others may not be able to relate to or understand makes interaction difficult. As such, the development of more universal and consistent systems developed over time. Today, some of the systems of units in use include the metric system, the imperial system, and the United States customary units.
The International System of Units (SI) is the standard metric system that is currently used, and consists of seven SI base units of length, mass, time, temperature, electric current, luminous intensity, and amount of substance. Although SI is used almost universally in science (including in the US), some countries such as the United States still use their own system of units. This is partly due to the substantial financial and cultural costs involved in changing a measurement system compared to the potential benefit of using a standardized system. Since US customary units (USC) are so entrenched in the United States, and SI is already used in most applications where standardization is important, everyday use of USC is still prevalent in the United States, and is unlikely to change. As such, many unit converters including this Conversion Calculator exist, and will continue to do so to ensure that people globally are able to communicate different measurements effectively.
In 1668, John Wilkins proposed a decimal system in which length, area, volume, and mass were linked to each other based on a pendulum that had a beat of one second as a base unit of length. In 1670, Gabriel Mouton proposed a decimal system that was instead based on the circumference of the earth, an idea supported by other prominent scientists of the time such as Jean Picard and Christiaan Huygens, but that did not take hold for approximately another 100 years.
By the mid-eighteenth century, it was clear to nations who traded and exchanged scientific ideas that standardization of weights and measures was necessary. In 1790, Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Perigord, the Prince of Talleyrand, approached the British (represented by John Riggs-Miller) and the Americans (represented by Thomas Jefferson) with proposals to define a common standard of length based on the length of a pendulum. In that same year, Thomas Jefferson, presented the "Plan for Establishing Uniformity in the Coinage, Weights, and Measures of the United States," which advocated for a decimal system in which units were related to each other by powers of ten. A committee that was formed in France comprised of some of the most prominent scientists of the day came to a similar conclusion, and also proposed a decimal system for all weights and measures. Although Congress considered Jefferson's report, it was not adopted. In Great Britain, John Riggs-Miller lost his British Parliamentary seat in the 1790 election. As such, the measurement system was only implemented in France, and in 1795, the metric system was formally defined in French law. It was not until 1799, however, that the metric system was officially adopted in France, though it was still not universally observed across the country.
Note! When using pressure units based on liquid columns (like mm H 2 O, in H 2 O, mm Hg ...) - be aware that densities of liquids varies with temperature. For more exact conversions consult temperature density sources for the actual liquids.
Note that the unit of work ft-lb f (foot-pound) is in practice commonly used as the unit of torque in the Imperial system. The unit for torque is lb f -ft (pound-foot) - one pound of force acting at a perpendicular distance of one foot from a pivot point.

Notes:
Customizations: For custom units and preferences to be stored, a small file named UnitConverter.ini (or after the name of your exe file) is written to the %APPDATA%\UnitConverter folder or, if running from a removable drive, to the removable drive's root folder. You can transfer this file to other computers to transfer customizations.
Our Unit Converter allows you to easily convert units. The tool provides more than 250 engineering and scientific units in 22 categories.
Unit Converter is also available as a mobile appor scan the QR-Code with your smart phone.
i would like to share my (universal) unit converter. universal because it is based on a dynamic table that groups the units by category and because it uses the same process for converting practically any unit category!
This is a conversion tool that allows unit values of different properties to be compared.
Note: - You cannot use commas (,) as decimal points. Please use periods (.)
Example: 1.02 not 1,02
Check the currency rates against all the world currencies here. The currency converter below is easy to use and the currency rates are updated frequently. This is very much needed given the extreme volatility in global currencies lately.
Given the iPhone's built-in calculator and the usefulness of Siri, a calculator app needs to do something really special to be worth recommending. But Calcbot is special, and I definitely recommend it, especially on the iPhone. The calculator function is a big improvement over the built-in calculator app, the unit conversions are incredibly useful, and the other features add to the value of the app. This one is worth checking out.
