                      Units of measure

                      Reading time: 1min

                      You can find all the available commands related to units of measurement here.

                       

                      You can do calculations using units. We use the metric system, also known as the International System of Units (SI). Find out which units and metric prefixes are supported. See the Metric system for background information.

                      • You must write the units with the buttons in this section. You can't write them with the keyboard. An m from here is a meter, but an m from the keyboard is just a variable.
                      • Usually, a space between symbols means product, but it implies a sum between quantities. If you want to multiply quantities, you must write the multiplication symbol between them.

                      At the top of the section, there is a selector of the SI prefixes for the units below. The unit of the result of an operation between quantities is selected automatically. You can force the unit of a quantity by using the Convert command. You can obtain a quantity by multiplying a number and a unit. Using those commands can split a quantity into its coefficient and unit.
