Citakan:Convert
Uses Lua: |
Template {{convert}} calculates measurements from one unit (you entered) to another one, and then presents the results. For example:
{{convert|2|km|mi}}
→ 2 kilometres (1.2 mi){{convert|7|mi|km}}
→ 7 miles (11 km)
Unit name or symbol (abbreviation): 1 pound or 1 lb?
[édit sumber]The 'abbreviation' is actually the 'symbol'.
|abbr=on
will produce the symbol of the unit, instead of its name:
{{convert|1|lb|kg}}
→ 1 pound (0.45 kg) -- to compare{{convert|1|lb|kg|abbr=on}}
→ 1 lb (0.45 kg)
Adjective: a 10-mile distance
[édit sumber]Use |adj=on
to produce the adjective form. The difference:
{{convert|10|mi|km}} to go
→ 10 miles (16 km) to go. -- to compareA {{convert|10|mi|km|adj=on}} distance
→ A 10-mile (16 km) distance. -- Adjective
Rounding: 100 ft is 30 m or 30.5 m or 30.48 m?
[édit sumber]In detail, it is 100 feet (30,480 mm)*. In practical use, it is common to round the calculated metric number. With that, there are several possibilities.
Default rounding
[édit sumber]- By 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 feet (40 m) | |
{{convert|123|ft|m|0}} | 123 feet (37 m) | |
{{convert|123|ft|m|1}} | 123 feet (37.5 m) | |
{{convert|550|ft|m|0}} | 550 feet (168 m) | Approximate value is 167.64 m |
{{convert|550|ft|m}} | 550 feet (170 m) | Rounds to 170, when approximate value is 167.64 m |
{{convert|500|ft|m|0}} | 500 feet (152 m) | Approximate value is 152.4 m |
{{convert|500|ft|m}} | 500 feet (150 m) | Rounds to 150, when approximate value is 152.4 m |
Convert supports four types of rounding:
Round to a given precision: use |precision=
[édit sumber]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 power of 1⁄10 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: use |sigfig=
[édit sumber]Specify the desired number of significant figures using |sigfig=<number>
as noted above.
Round to a multiple of 5: 15, 20, 25, ...
[édit sumber]Using |round=5
rounds the outcome to a multiple of 5. Same as |near=5
and |disp=5
.
{{convert|10|m|ft}}
→ 10 metres (33 ft){{convert|10|m|ft|round=5}}
→ 10 metres (35 ft)
Similar: using |round=25
rounds the outcome to a multiple of 25.
{{convert|10|m|ft}}
→ 10 metres (33 ft){{convert|10|m|ft|round=25}}
→ 10 metres (25 ft)- To compare:
{{convert|10|m|ft|sigfig=4}}
→ 10 metres (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|round=each}}
→ 10 by 200 by 3,000 metres (33 ft × 660 ft × 9,800 ft)
{{convert|10 x 200 x 3000|m|ft}}
→ 10 by 200 by 3,000 metres (33 ft × 656 ft × 9,843 ft)
Round to a multiple of a given fraction: 21⁄4 inch
[édit sumber]Specify the desired denominator using |frac=<some positive integer>
. (Denominator is the below-the-slash number, for example the 3 in 1⁄3).
{{convert|6|cm|in|frac=2}}
→ 6 centimetres (2 1⁄2 in){{convert|6|cm|in|frac=4}}
→ 6 centimetres (2 1⁄4 in){{convert|6|cm|in|frac=100}}
→ 6 centimetres (2 9⁄25 in)- To compare:
{{convert|6|cm|in}}
→ 6 centimetres (2.362 in)
Rounding temperatures °C, °F and K
[édit sumber]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|C|F K}}
→ 10 °C (50 °F; 283 K)
Note
- For a temperature difference, like to convert "a rise of 20 °C", use
|C-change=20
&tc. {{convert|20|C-change|F-change K-change}}
→ A rise of 20 °C (36 °F; 20 K)
Into multiple units: 10 °C (50 °F; 283 K)
[édit sumber]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 kilometres (3.1 mi; 2.7 nmi)
Multiple measurements
[édit sumber]Range of values: 6 to 17 kg (13 to 37 lb)
[édit sumber]Range indicators are entered as the second parameter (between the values). Range separators can be:
to
,to(-)
,-
(ndash or hyphen),or
,and
,±
,+/-
:{{convert|6|to|17|kg|lb|abbr=on}}
→ 6 to 17 kg (13 to 37 lb){{convert|-10|to|-20|C}}
→ −10 to −20 °C (14 to −4 °F){{convert|6|to(-)|17|kg|lb}}
→ 6 to 17 kilograms (13–37 lb){{convert|6|and|17|kg|lb}}
→ 6 and 17 kilograms (13 and 37 lb){{convert|60|±|10|m|ft}}
→ 60 ± 10 metres (197 ± 33 ft){{convert|60|+/-|10|m|ft}}
→ 60 ± 10 metres (197 ± 33 ft)
Multiple dimensions: 6 by 12 feet (1.8 by 3.7 m)
[édit sumber]{{convert|6|by|12|ft|m}}
→ 6 by 12 feet (1.8 by 3.7 m){{convert|6|x|12|m|ft}}
→ 6 by 12 metres (20 ft × 39 ft)
About feet, inch multiples
[édit sumber]It is not possible to produce multiple [feet, inch] measurements.
Words
[édit sumber]Spell out numbers: ten miles
[édit sumber]To write a number in words, use |spell=in
:
{{convert|10|mi|m|spell=in}}
→ ten miles (16,000 m)
To spell out both in and out values, use |spell=on
:
{{convert|10|mi|m|spell=on}}
→ ten miles (sixteen thousand metres)
To make first letter a capital, use |spell=In
, |spell=On
{{convert|10|mi|m|spell=In}}
→ Ten miles (16,000 m){{convert|10|mi|m|spell=On}}
→ Ten miles (sixteen thousand metres)
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}}
→ ten miles (sixteen thousand meters)
Spelling of units: UK metre or US meter?
[édit sumber]Default spelling of units is en-UK. To show en-US spelling, use |sp=us
:
{{convert|1|m|ft}}
→ 1 metre (3.3 ft) -- default{{convert|1|m|ft|sp=us}}
→ 1 meter (3.3 ft)
Extra words: 4 planted acres
[édit sumber]- Incomplete secion:
{{convert|4|acre||adj=pre|planted}}
→ 4 planted acres (1.6 ha)
Extra adjective words: A 10-foot-long (3.0 m) corridor
[édit sumber]{{convert|4|ft| |adj=mid|-long}}
→ 10-foot-long (3.0 m)
Numbers in
[édit sumber]Fractions: 1⁄2 inch (12.7 mm)
[édit sumber]The number to convert can be expressed in fractions:
{{convert|1/2|in|mm|1}}
→ 1⁄2 inch (12.7 mm)
Also the "⁄" punctuation is accepted (⁄
)
{{convert|1⁄2|in|mm|1}} → 1⁄2 inch (12.7 mm)
Engineering notation: e6m
[édit sumber]
Common engineering notations like e6 (106) are to be put with the unit:
{{convert|9|e6m}}
→9 million metres (30,000,000 ft)

Output manipulation
[édit sumber]
Brackets and separators: 10 m [33 ft]
[édit sumber]
Punctuation that distinguishes the two measurements is set by |disp=
.
Options are: b
(the default), sqbr
, /
(or: s, slash), comma
, or
, br
, x|...
:
{{convert|10|m|ft}}
→ 10 metres (33 ft) -- ( ) brackets are the default
{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=sqbr}}
→ 10 metres [33 ft]
{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=slash}}
→ 10 m (33 ft)*
{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=comma}}
→ 10 metres, 33 ft
{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=or}}
→ 10 metres or 33 feet
Setting |disp=br
will force a new line (<br>
)
{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=br}}
→ 10 metres
33 feet
Setting |disp=x
extra parameter (separator) to add:
{{convert|10|m|ft|disp=x|_MyText_}}
→ 10 metres_MyText_33 ft -- (Take care of the spaces, use )
Converted measurement only: 6.2 mi
[édit sumber]
Setting |disp=out
returns the calculated measurement only:
{{convert|10|km|mi|disp=out}}
→ 6.2 mi
{{convert|10|km|mi|disp=u2}}
→ 10 kilometres (6.2 mi)*
Converted number only: 6.2
[édit sumber]
Setting |disp=number
returns the converted number only:
{{convert|10|km|mi|disp=number}}
→ 6.2
Unit only: kilometres
[édit sumber]
Setting |disp=unit
returns the (input) unit only:
{{convert|10|km|mi|disp=unit}}
→ kilometres
Flipping the two measurements: 1,609.3 metres (1 mile)
[édit sumber]
Set |disp=flip
will flip (swap) the two measurements:
{{convert|1|mi|m|disp=flip}}
→ 1,609.3 metres (1 mile)
Table options
[édit sumber]
For the wikitable structure, there are two options: split over columns and make the table sortable.
Result split over columns in a table
[édit sumber]
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 metres (98 ft)
Sorting
[édit sumber]
- Use both
|disp=table
|sortable=on
to make a table column sortable. Only the first column will sort correct.
- {{convert|10|m|ft|disp=table|sortable=on}} → (don't let this frighten you)
style="text-align:right;" data-sort-value="7001100000000000000"|10

Units overview
[édit sumber]
- See also: complete Convert/list of units
The table below lists units supported by template {{convert}}. It is subdivided by the dimension of the measurement, such as length, area, and power. The list is not complete, more complete lists are linked for each dimension. A complete list is at the full list of units.
The unit-code (column 3), is accepted as input by the template. These can be used as the second or third unnamed parameter. Some units have alternative codes; these are shown in brackets e.g. °F (F): each may be entered for Fahrenheit.
Column 7 lists possible combinations of multiple converted outputs. E.g. {{convert|55|nmi|km mi}}
produces "55 nautical miles (102 km; 63 mi)". Such a combination must be used as the third unnamed parameter.
