Abstract
A method for computer-implemented unit-conversion method, the method comprising identifying a first numerical value in a first system of units displayed on a computing device, converting the first numerical value in the first system of units into a second numerical value, and displaying the second numerical value and the second system of units on the computing device.
Claims20
A computer-implemented unit-conversion method comprising:
- identifying a first numerical value in a first system of units displayed on a computing device;
- converting the first numerical value in the first system of units into a second numerical value;
- and
- displaying the second numerical value and the second system of units on the computing device.
A computer-readable medium comprising instructions in code which when loaded into a memory and executed by a processor of a computing device cause the computing device to:
- identify a first numerical value in a first system of units displayed on a computing device;
- convert the first numerical value in the first system of units into a second numerical value;
- and
- display the second numerical value and the second system of units on the computing device.
A computing device comprising:
- a display to display a first numerical value in a first system of units on a computing device;
- and
- a processor operatively coupled to a memory to identify the first system of units and to convert the first numerical value in the first system of units into a second numerical value and to cause the display to display the second numerical value and the second system of units.
