Post subject:  Unit Converter for Metric AND Imperial AND Computer DATA
ok... This is a program i made to convert, units of measurement for mass,length,temp.,computer data,time,and weight.... well This Converts: in,ft,cm,mm,km,ml,m,l,mile,g,mg,kg,lbs,hr,sec,min,gal, ounce,f,c,b,B,Kb,KB,MB,Mb,GB..... so yea.. Check it out and tell me if any conversions dont work.....i havn't tested each variatioon as there are close to 100 or so.....think i got em all tho... Post any feedback good or bad... Thank You Kevin Folz, the maker of Pac Man and Rock Paper Scissors....Search me under author to find them NOW WITH DEFINITION OF ABREIVIATIONS IN THE ZIP FILE>>>>.... YAY !!! Very Happy COMPSCI LET ME UPLOAD!!! ENJOY

when it fails it says in fails , YOU have a typo my padawain learner , but its an awsome program , the fact you have to learn all the commads for the different units is awkward ,buttons would be much better , it would be a good project to update this awsome program

you mean all the different units of measurement and stuff?? should i include a text file in the zip file to explain all abbreviations.?? i wanted a small user friendly program.....so you will keep it for all your needs.... i use that kind of stuff a lot in cooking..... pain in the ass looking it up on net... there are good sites... but this way you dont need internet on.. for modem people.. and also its all in one... not grouped...Thanks, im glad you liked...will fix and re upload

ohh yeah the app is usefull i actually used it for a physics question , id just really liketo see it done with buttons so i dont have to search the top for the abbreviation , im not trying to bash the app , but it would be an aswom e upgrade ,i might try it myself if i have the time

u want the code????.... and by the way.... the reason that typo was there
Quote:
when it fails it says in fails..
is because it says.... " Conversion of: 99 cm To: in Failed (in being Inch)!
... get it... if you modify my code just add your name to title after mine.... saying remade by "you" and send me code... Thanks..

Kool program. This thing really helped me out with my math homework. Thanx. My one sugestion would be to make the interface a bit more user friendly by posibly adding buttons instead of typing in the units. Other then that it was a really kool program.

Glad to help... my aim was to create a program you would keep on ur C:/ drive and have a shortcut in startmenu... for all math, computer, and Baking needs.....plus cuz i hate Imperial units.... hate converting them even more...

You won't stop with this thing will it. I got a cool idea for you next time, seem show I lvoe seeing 4 threads about a single program in 2 weeks.

UPDATE THE ORIGINAL

Then post in the first thread you made, jesus christ, someone give this retard a cookie.


P.S: Your still stuck on this eh. After I post mine you have to bring urs out of the grave to one up it, as a fellow programmer, I will suggest this, don't shoot down other programmers, and simply move on and make something bigger and better, while letting others improve on your methods without flipping out, Bill Gates.

wo, settle down, you don't need to make the font so big to get a point across. do it normally with clever word play in sentences and not through huge fonts.

.hack, constructive criticism please, if he wants to work on his program to further improve it, then let him, no need to yell at him for trying to update a old program. bits will be removed if this continues.
