Template {{convert}} calculates measurements from one unit (you can enter) to another one, and then presents the results. For example:
{{convert|2|km|mi}}
→ 2 කිලෝමීටර (1.2 mi){{convert|7|mi|km}}
→ 7 සැතපුම්s (11 km)
The available units are listed below. Units are always case-sensitive (kW, not KW or kw). Multiple formatting and calculation options are listed below.
Unit name or symbol (abbreviation): 1 pound or 1 lb?
[සංස්කරණය]By default, the first value shows unit name spelled out, the second the symbol (or abbreviation). Use |abbr=on/off
to change this behaviour:
{{convert|1|lb|kg}}
→ 1 pound (0.45 kg)
To abbreviate both:
{{convert|1|lb|kg|abbr=on}}
→ 1 lb (0.45 kg){{convert|1|lb|kg|abbr=off}}
→ 1 pound (0.45 කිලෝග්රෑම්)
|abbr=in
is the reverse behaviour to the default, |abbr=out
:
{{convert|1|lb|kg|abbr=in}}
→ 1 lb (0.45 කිලෝග්රෑම්)
When using scientific notation, the default is for the second (converted) value to display with scientific notation:
{{convert|100|e6mi|e6km}}
→ 100 million සැතපුම්s (160×10 6 km)
To display thousands, millions, etc., while abbreviating both input and output units use |abbr=unit
:
{{convert|100|e6mi|e6km|abbr=unit}}
→ 100 million mi (160 million km)
Convenience: {{cvt}} has |abbr=on
by default
[සංස්කරණය]Template {{cvt}} is similar to {{convert}}, but has |abbr=on
as the default behaviour. In {{cvt}}, all other options are available. So:
{{cvt|1|lb|kg}}
→ 1 lb (0.45 kg)
is equal to:
{{convert|1|lb|kg|abbr=on}}
→ 1 lb (0.45 kg)
Adjective: a 10-mile distance
[සංස්කරණය]Use |adj=on
to produce the adjective form:
A {{convert|10|mi|km|adj=on}} distance
→ A 10-සැතපුම් (16 km) distance.
Default behaviour, for comparison:
{{convert|10|mi|km}} to go
→ 10 සැතපුම්s (16 km) to go.
This option does not work with |abbr=on
.
Rounding: 100 ft is 30 m or 30.5 m or 30.48 m?
[සංස්කරණය]By definition, 100 ft equals 30.48 m. In practical use, it is common to round the calculated metric number. With that, there are several possibilities.
Default rounding
[සංස්කරණය]By {{Convert}} default, the conversion result will be rounded either to precision comparable to that of the input value (the number of digits after the decimal point—or the negative of the number of non-significant zeroes before the point—is increased by one if the conversion is a multiplication by a number between 0.02 and 0.2, remains the same if the factor is between 0.2 and 2, is decreased by 1 if it is between 2 and 20, and so on) or to two significant figures, whichever is more precise. An exception to this is rounding temperatures (see below).
Examples of rounding | ||
---|---|---|
Input | Displays as | Note |
{{convert|123|ft|m|-1}} |
123 අඩි (40 m) | |
{{convert|123|ft|m}} |
123 අඩි (37 m) | same output as with 0 (below) |
{{convert|123|ft|m|0}} |
123 අඩි (37 m) | |
{{convert|123|ft|m|1}} |
123 අඩි (37.5 m) | |
{{convert|123|ft|m|2}} |
123 අඩි (37.49 m) | exact value is 37.4904 m |
{{convert|500|ft|m|-1}} |
500 අඩි (150 m) | |
{{convert|500|ft|m}} |
500 අඩි (150 m) | same output as with -1 (above) |
{{convert|500|ft|m|0}} |
500 අඩි (152 m) | |
{{convert|500|ft|m|1}} |
500 අඩි (152.4 m) | |
{{convert|500|ft|m|2}} |
500 අඩි (152.40 m) | exact value is 152.4 m |
Convert supports four types of rounding:
Round to a given precision: use a precision number
[සංස්කරණය]Specify the desired precision with the fourth unnamed parameter (or third unnamed parameter if the "convert to" parameter is omitted; or fifth unnamed parameter if a range is specified; or fourth unnamed parameter again if a range is specified and the "convert to" parameter is omitted; needs to be replaced with a "precision" named parameter). The conversion is rounded off to the nearest multiple of 1⁄10 to the power of this number. For instance, if the result is 8621 and the round number is "-2", the result will be 8600. If the result is "234.0283043" and the round number is "0", the result will be 234.
Round to a given number of significant figures: |sigfig=
[සංස්කරණය]To specify the output number to be with n significant figures use |sigfig=<number>
:
{{convert|1200|ft|m|sigfig=4}}
→ 1,200 අඩි (365.8 m){{convert|1200|ft|m|sigfig=3}}
→ 1,200 අඩි (366 m){{convert|1200|ft|m|sigfig=2}}
→ 1,200 අඩි (370 m){{convert|1200|ft|m|sigfig=1}}
→ 1,200 අඩි (400 m)
Default behaviour, for comparison:
{{convert|1200|ft|m}}
→ 1,200 අඩි (370 m)
Setting |sigfig=
is meaningless
{{convert|1200|ft|m|sigfig=0}}
→ 1,200 අඩි (370 m)*
Round to a multiple of 5: 15, 20, 25, ...
[සංස්කරණය]Using |round=5
rounds the outcome to a multiple of 5.
{{convert|10|m|ft}}
→ 10 මීටර (33 ft){{convert|10|m|ft|round=5}}
→ 10 මීටර (35 ft)
Similar: using |round=25
rounds the outcome to a multiple of 25.
{{convert|10|m|ft}}
→ 10 මීටර (33 ft){{convert|10|m|ft|round=25}}
→ 10 මීටර (25 ft)
Default behaviour, for comparison:
{{convert|10|m|ft|sigfig=4}}
→ 10 මීටර (32.81 ft)
In a range, one can round each value individually to the default. Use |round=each
:
{{convert|10 x 200 x 3000|m|ft}}
→ 10 by 200 by 3,000 මීටර (33 ft × 656 ft × 9,843 ft){{convert|10 x 200 x 3000|m|ft|round=each}}
→ 10 by 200 by 3,000 මීටර (33 ft × 660 ft × 9,800 ft)
Round to a multiple of a given fraction: 2 3⁄16 inch
[සංස්කරණය]Specify the desired denominator using |frac=<some positive integer>
. (Denominator is the below-the-slash number, for example the 3 in 1⁄3).
{{convert|5.56|cm|in|frac=16}}
→ 5.56 සෙන්ටිමීටර (2 3⁄16 in){{convert|8|cm|in|frac=4}}
→ 8 සෙන්ටිමීටර (3 1⁄4 in)
The fraction is reduced when possible:
{{convert|8|cm|in|frac=100}}
→ 8 සෙන්ටිමීටර (3 3⁄20 in)
Default behaviour, for comparison:
{{convert|8|cm|in}}
→ 8 සෙන්ටිමීටර (3.150 in)
In temperatures: rounding °C, °F and K
[සංස්කරණය]In temperatures, the conversion will be rounded either to precision comparable to that of the input value or to that which would give three significant figures when expressed in kelvins, whichever is more precise.
{{convert|10,000|C|F K}}
→ 10,000 °C (18,000 °F; 10,300 K){{convert|10,000.1|C|F K}}
→ 10,000.1 °C (18,032.2 °F; 10,273.2 K){{convert|-272|C|F K}}
→ −272 °C (−457.60 °F; 1.15 K){{convert|-272|C}}
→ −272 °C (−457.60 °F){{convert|-300|C|F K}}
→ −300 °C (−508.0 °F; −26.9 K){{convert|0|C|F K}}
→ 0 °C (32 °F; 273 K)
The precision of the input number in example (1) is one digit, but the precision of its Kelvins expression is three, so the precision of the Fahrenheit conversion is made three (made 180...) . (1) and (2) seem to belie the fact that a 0.1 degrees Celsius change is a 0.18 degrees Fahrenheit change, and make the 32 degrees difference shown in (1) begin to seem off somehow.
Result (1) seems off until you set the significant figures yourself with |sigfig=
:
{{convert|10000|C|sigfig=5}}
→ 10,000 °C (18,032 °F)
or you set the precision positionally, relative to the decimal point (zero being at the decimal point):
{{convert|10000|C|0}}
→ 10,000 °C (18,032 °F)
The precision of the input number in example (2) is six, so the precision of the Fahrenheit output is, whereas before, Kelvins had determined it to be three. Examples (3) and (4) show how this can be hidden and generate questions, but it occurs there because the Kelvins conversion generated two fractional parts. (Before it was the input number that generated the fractional part.) In example (3) the three input digits converted into five significant output digits because of the two digits after the decimal point, generated by the Kelvins conversion. This happened again in (5), but in (6) decimal fractions were neither given as input nor induced by the Kelvins conversion.
Into multiple units: 10 °C (50 °F; 283 K)
[සංස්කරණය]Separate the multiple output units by a space:
{{convert|10|C|F K}}
→ 10 °C (50 °F; 283 K){{convert|5|km|mi nmi}}
→ 5 කිලෝමීටර (3.1 mi; 2.7 nmi)
If the output unit names contain spaces, use +
as the separator.

- For multiple-unit options like 1 ft 5 in, see #In input and #In output.
Ranges of values
[සංස්කරණය]A range converts two values and separates them by your choice of words and punctuation.
A range: 6 to 17 kg (13 to 37 lb)
[සංස්කරණය]Range indicators are entered as the second parameter (between the values). Range separators can be:

(keeping dimensions right, like in area = x km2):
{{convert|6|x|12|m|ft|abbr=on}}
→ 6 m × 12 m (20 ft × 39 ft)
About feet, inch in ranges and multiples
[සංස්කරණය]While it is possible to enter feet, inch in a simple conversion, this is not possible for ranges:

→ 1 අඩි 3 අඟල් ([convert: unknown unit])*
Default behaviour, for comparison:
{{convert|1|ft|3|in|mm}}

Words
[සංස්කරණය]Spelling of unit name: UK metre or US meter?
[සංස්කරණය]Default spelling of units is en-UK. To show en-US spelling, use |sp=us
:
{{convert|1|m|ft}}
→ 1 මීටර (3.3 ft)—default{{convert|1|m|ft|sp=us}}
→ 1 මීටර (3.3 ft)
Spell out numbers: ten miles
[සංස්කරණය]To write a number in words, use |spell=in
:
{{convert|10|mi|m|spell=in}}
→ දහය සැතපුම්s (16,000 m)
To spell out both in and out values, use |spell=on
:
{{convert|10|mi|m|spell=on}}
→ දහය සැතපුම්s (දහසය දහස මීටර)
To make first letter a capital, use |spell=In
, |spell=On
{{convert|10|mi|m|spell=In}}
→ දහය සැතපුම්s (16,000 m){{convert|10|mi|m|spell=On}}
→ දහය සැතපුම්s (දහසය දහස මීටර)
Remember that the spelling of the units (ft, m) is independently set by |abbr=
. To the extreme:
{{convert|10|mi|m|spell=on|abbr=off|sp=us}}
→ දහය සැතපුම්s (දහසය දහස මීටරs)
Inserted before units: 4 planted acres
[සංස්කරණය]{{convert|4|acre||adj=pre|planted}}
→ 4 planted acres (1.6 ha)
disp=preunit
is similar, but has no separator after the specified text, and can have different text for the output value:
{{convert|4|acre||disp=preunit|planted }}
→ 4 planted acres (1.6 planted ha){{convert|4|acre||disp=preunit|planted |reforested-}}
→ 4 planted acres (1.6 reforested-ha)
After adjective unit: A 10-අඩි-long corridor
[සංස්කරණය]{{convert|10|ft|m|adj=mid|-long}}
→ 10-අඩි-long (3.0 m)
Plurals: 1 inch, 2 inches
[සංස්කරණය]The unit symbol is singular always. Depending on the preceding number only, a unit name can be shown plural.
{{convert|1|metre}}
→ 1 මීටර (3 ft 3 in){{convert|2|metre}}
→ 2 මීටර (6 ft 7 in){{convert|2|metre|abbr=on}}
→ 2 m (6 ft 7 in)
- Exception
Entering the unit spelled |foot|
forces singular output "foot", whatever the number is.
{{convert|100|foot|abbr=off}}
→ 100 foot (30 මීටර)
Fractions: one-eighth of an imperial pint
[සංස්කරණය]The convert template also supports spelling out fractions.
{{convert|1/4|oz|g|spell=in}}
→ one-quarter ounce (7.1 g)
Any additional words needed for the fraction can also be added at the end of the template.
{{convert|1/8|imppt|mL|spell=in|adj=pre|of an}}
→ one-eighth of an imperial pint (71 mL)
Numbers
[සංස්කරණය]Using an SI prefix: gigameter (Gm), or micrometer (μm)
[සංස්කරණය]Metric prefixes | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Units can have an SI prefix like G
before the unit: Gm
, and giga
before the name: gigameter
. These are plain multiplication factors.
To illustrate, these are trivial calculations (from meter to meter), showing the multiplication factor:
- 12 Gm (1.2×1010 m)
- 12 μm (1.2×10−5 m)
The prefix can be added before the SI unit (here: unit m
for meter):
{{convert|12|Gm|mi|abbr=on}}
→ 12 Gm (7,500,000 mi)Mm
: 12 Mm (7,500 mi)km
: 12 km (39,000 ft)mm
: 12 mm (0.47 in)μm
: 12 μm (0.012 mm)um
: 12 μm (0.012 mm) (letter "u" can be used for "μ" here)
The prefix can be used in the output unit:
{{convert|12000|mi|Mm|abbr=on}}
→ 12,000 mi (19 Mm){{convert|12|in|μm|abbr=on}}
→ 12 in (300,000 μm)
As an exception, the non-SI unit "inch" can have the "μ" prefix too)
{{convert|12|μm|μin|abbr=on}}
→ 12 μm (470 μin)
Engineering notation: 7 × 106 m
[සංස්කරණය]In the unit: e6m
[සංස්කරණය]Engineering number notations like 7E6 (for 7 × 106) can be entered as a "prefix" to the unit:
{{convert|7|e6m}}
→ 7 million මීටර (23,000,000 ft)
The same is possible for the output unit:
{{convert|23,000,000|ft|e6m}}
→ 23,000,000 අඩි (7.0×10 6 m)
Any standard unit (not a combination, multiple, or built-in unit) can have such a prefix:
e3
(thousand),e6
(million),e9
(billion),e12
(trillion),e15
(quadrillion).
Scientific notation: 1.23×10−14
[සංස්කරණය]In scientific notation, a number is written like 1.23×10−14. The plain number has exactly one digit before the decimal point.
With {{convert}}, the input can be in e-notation such as 12.3e4
. This value is displayed as a power of ten, and the output is displayed in scientific notation, except that an output value satisfying 0.01 <= v < 1000 is shown as a normal number. In addition, if the output value is 1000 and sigfig=4 is used, the value is displayed as a normal number.
{{convert|12.3e-15|atm|atm|abbr=on}}
→ 12.3×10−15 atm (1.23×10−14 atm){{convert|0.00000005|atm|atm|abbr=on}}
→ 0.00000005 atm (5.0×10−8 atm)
Input with fractions: 1 1⁄2 අඟල් (38.1 mm)
[සංස්කරණය]The number to convert can be written in fractions. Both /
(keyboard slash) and ⁄
(fraction slash) are accepted:
{{convert|1/2|in|mm|1}}
→ 1⁄2 අඟල (12.7 mm){{convert|1⁄2|in|mm|1}}
→ 1⁄2 අඟල (12.7 mm)
With integers, use a +
sign
{{convert|2+1⁄2|in|mm|1}}
→ 2 1⁄2 අඟල් (63.5 mm)
When negative, use a hyphen -
and repeat it:
{{convert|-2-1⁄2|in|mm|1}}
→ −2 1⁄2 අඟල් (−63.5 mm){{convert|2-1⁄2|in|mm|1}}
→ 2–1⁄2 අඟල (50.8–12.7 mm) Note: this is read as a range{{convert|-2+1⁄2|in|mm|1}}
→ [convert: invalid number] Should be a number, not an expression (do not require a calculation)
Output with horizontal fraction bar in: 1/2 inch
[සංස්කරණය]Using a double slash (//
) returns a horizontal bar fraction:
{{convert|1//2|in|mm|1}}
→ 1/2 අඟල (12.7 mm){{convert|2+1//2|in|mm|1}}
→ 2 1/2 අඟල් (63.5 mm)
Thousands separator: 1,000 mi or 1000 mi
[සංස්කරණය]In input, a comma for thousands separator is accepted but not required; a gap (space) is not accepted. In output, by default, the thousand separator is the comma:
{{convert|1234567|m|ft}}
→ 1,234,567 මීටර (4,050,417 ft){{convert|1,234,567|m|ft}}
→ 1,234,567 මීටර (4,050,417 ft){{convert|1 234 567|m|ft}}
→ [convert: invalid number]
Set |comma=off
to remove the separator from the output:
{{convert|1234567|m|ft|comma=off}}
→ 1234567 මීටර (4050417 ft)
Use |comma=gaps
to use digit grouping by gap (thin space) as a thousands separator:
{{convert|1234567|m|ft|comma=gaps}}
→ 1234567 මීටර (4050417 ft)
Default behaviour, for comparison:
{{convert|1234567|m|ft}}
→ 1,234,567 මීටර (4,050,417 ft)
Setting |comma=5
or |comma=gaps5
will only add the separator when the number of digits is 5 or more:
{{convert|1234|m|ft|comma=5}}
→ 1234 මීටර (4049 ft){{convert|1234567|m|ft|comma=5}}
→ 1,234,567 මීටර (4,050,417 ft){{convert|1234|m|ft|comma=gaps5}}
→ 1,234 මීටර (4,049 ft)*{{convert|1234567|m|ft|comma=gaps5}}
→ 1,234,567 මීටර (4,050,417 ft)*
Default behaviour, for comparison:
{{convert|1234|m|ft}}
→ 1,234 මීටර (4,049 ft)
Output manipulation
[සංස්කරණය]Brackets and separators: 10 m [33 ft]
[සංස්කරණය]Punctuation that distinguishes the two measurements is set by |disp=
.
Options are: b
(the default), sqbr
, comma
, or
, br
, x|…
:
{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=sqbr}}
→ 10 මීටර [33 ft]{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=comma}}
→ 10 මීටර, 33 ft{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=or}}
→ 10 මීටර or 33 අඩි
Default behaviour, for comparison:
{{convert|10|m|ft}}
→ 10 මීටර (33 ft)
Setting |disp=br
will force a new line (<br/>
)
{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=br}}
→ 10 මීටර
33 අඩි
Also |disp=br()
will force a new line, and keep the brackets:
{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=br()}}
→ 10 මීටර
(33 අඩි)
Setting |disp=x|…

Flipping (reordering) the two measurements: 1,609.3 මීටර (1 සැතපුම්)
[සංස්කරණය]Setting |order=flip
will flip (swap) the two measurements:
{{convert|1|mi|m|order=flip}}
→ 1,609.3 මීටර (1 සැතපුම්)
Default behaviour, for comparison:
{{convert|1|mi|m}}
→ 1 සැතපුම් (1,609.3 මීටර)
When converting to multiple units, the effect is:
{{convert|10|km|mi nmi|order=flip}}
→ 6.2137 සැතපුම්s; 5.3996 nautical miles (10 කිලෝමීටර){{convert|10|km|nmi mi|order=flip}}

Table options
[සංස්කරණය]For the wikitable structure, there are three options: add a line-break, split the result over columns and make the table sortable.
Enforced line break
[සංස්කරණය]|disp=br
adds a line-break and omits brackets.
|disp=br()
adds a line-break and does add brackets to the converted value. This may be useful in tables:
|disp=br |
|disp=br()
|
---|---|
100 කිලෝමීටර 62 සැතපුම්s |
100 කිලෝමීටර (62 සැතපුම්s) |
Table columns showing numbers only
[සංස්කරණය]Using {convert} in a table cell, with |disp=table
splits the result over two columns:
{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=table}}
→style="text-align:right;"|10
|style="text-align:right;"|33
|disp=tablecen
does the same, and also centers the text:
{{convert|20|m|ft|disp=tablecen}}
→style="text-align:center;"|20
|style="text-align:center;"|66
The units are added as a column header:
m ft |disp=table
10 33 |disp=tablecen
20 66 |disp=<other>
(default)30 මීටර (98 ft)
Sorting
[සංස්කරණය]Use |sortable=on
to include a hidden numerical sortkey in the output, suitable for use in a table with sortable columns. Technically, this places a hidden string before the actual displayed values:
{{convert|10|m|ft|sortable=on}}
→ <span style="display:none">7001100000000000000</span>10 metres (33 ft)
Use both |disp=table
and |sortable=on
together to produce table columns (pipe symbols) for each value in sortable columns:
m ft A 15 3⁄4 52 B 15.5 51 C 16.0 52.5 D 16 52
The generated sortkey is calculated in a consistent way based on both the value and its unit as passed to the convert template. In most cases convert uses the passed value converted to SI base units. It is therefore not necessarily the displayed value or other alternate units and is calculated regardless of output format options. Using different units or different order of units in individual rows should therefore not lead to incorrect sorting, although variations in rounding can give surprising results, since an unrounded number is used for the sortkey.
Units
[සංස්කරණය]All units
[සංස්කරණය]The table below lists units supported by template {{convert}}. The list is not complete—more complete lists are linked for each dimension. A complete list is at the full list of units.
- Explanation – unit codes
The {{convert}} template uses unit-codes, which are similar to (but not necessarily exactly the same as) the usual written abbreviation for a given unit. These 'unit-codes' are given in column 3 of the following tables, and are accepted as input by the {{convert}} template as the second and third unnamed parameters. For example, {{convert|100|kg|lb}}
produces "100 කිලෝග්රෑම් (220 lb)" and {{convert|100|lb|kg}}
produces "100 pounds (45 kg)"
Some units have alternative unit-codes; these are shown in brackets in column 3, e.g. °F (F): either may be entered for Fahrenheit (but not lower-case f).
The unit-codes should be treated as case-sensitive, especially in cases like {{convert|100|Mm|mm}}
, which produces "100 මෙගාමීටර (1.0×1011 mm)".
The output of {{convert}} can display multiple converted units, if further unit-codes are specified after the second unnamed parameter (without the | separator). Typical combination output units are listed below in column 7. For example, {{convert|55|nmi|km mi}}
produces "55 nautical miles (102 km; 63 mi)", and {{convert|1|oz|ozt g gr}}
produces "1 ounce (0.91 ozt; 28 g; 440 gr)".

'per' units: kg/hl
[සංස්කරණය]When using a slash (/
), a unit like kg/hl
is recognized as kilograms per hectolitre and will be converted with other mass/volume units.
{{convert|1000|kg/hl}}
→ 1,000 කිලෝග්රෑම් per hectolitre (100 lb/imp gal)
Units of difference: 10 °C higher; how much in °F
[සංස්කරණය]When a number is the measurement for a difference, one conversion is done. This may occur in temperatures (°C, °F, K). Compare this to a range, when two conversions are done.
The only available units of difference are: |C-change=
, |F-change=
and |K-change=
.
{{convert|10|C}}
→ 10 °C (50 °F), regular temperature{{convert|10|C-change}}
→ 10 °C (18 °F), difference (e.g., "The temperature changed from 30 into 40 °C"){{convert|10-15|C}}
→ 10–15 °C (50–59 °F), range (e.g., "The temperature is between 10 and 15 °C")
Consistently, into multiple units:
A rise of {{convert|10|C-change|F-change K-change}}
→ A rise of 10 °C (18 °F; 10 K)
Multiple units: 1 ft 5 in
[සංස්කරණය]In input
[සංස්කරණය]Base document § Input multiples lists options for multiple unit input (like ft,in
). It can catch predefined sets only (units that can be subdivided; e.g., yd into ft):
{{convert|1|yd|2|ft|3|in}}
→ 1 yard 2 අඩි 3 අඟල් (1.60 m){{convert|2|ft|3|in|cm}}
→ 2 අඩි 3 අඟල් (69 cm){{convert|1|lb|5|oz|g}}
→ 1 pound 5 ounces (600 g)
In output
[සංස්කරණය]Available multiple-unit output options predefined, like ftin
and ydftin
. The full list is at § Output multiples.
{{convert|2|m|ftin}}
→ 2 මීටර (6 ft 7 in){{convert|2|m|ft in}}
→ 2 මීටර (6.6 ft; 79 in), using a space, returns the decimal point
Default behaviour, for comparison:
{{convert|2|m}}
→ 2 මීටර (6 ft 7 in)
See also:
Currency per unit: $/mi → $/km
[සංස්කරණය]Using currency symbols in a $ per unit value, you can convert the per-unit:
{{convert|10|$/mi|$/km}}
→ $10 per සැතපුම් ($6.2/km)
You can set the currency in both values using |$=€
:
{{convert|10|$/mi|$/km|$=€}}
→ €10 per සැතපුම් (€6.2/km)
It is not possible to convert the currency. So, this result (mixed currencies) is not possible: $15 per mile (€8.6/km)
