Notation conversions
Roman numerals, data storage prefixes, fuel economy measures and angle units: conversions where the notation itself is the hard part.
Roman Numeral Converter
Convert numbers to Roman numerals and back, from 1 to 3999, with each numeral checked against the rules and a rejected one told which rule it breaks.
Data Storage Converter
Convert between bits, bytes, decimal GB and TB and binary GiB and TiB, see why a 1 TB drive shows as 931 GB, and how long a file takes at a given speed.
Fuel Economy Converter
Convert fuel economy between US mpg, imperial mpg, km per litre and litres per 100 km, with the cost per mile and km when you add a fuel price.
Degrees and Radians Converter
Convert angles between degrees, radians, gradians and turns, with radians given exactly as a multiple of π, such as π/6 for 30°, as well as in decimals.
Military Time Converter
Convert a 12-hour AM or PM time to military and 24-hour time, or a military time such as 1430 back to the 12-hour clock.
Unix Timestamp Converter
Convert a Unix timestamp in seconds or milliseconds to a UTC date and time, or a UTC date and time back to a Unix timestamp.
Fraction to Decimal Calculator
Write a fraction or mixed number as an exact decimal, with the repeating digits marked, and rounded to the number of places you choose.
Color Converter
Convert a colour between hex, RGB and HSL notation, using the conversions in the CSS Color Module Level 4 specification.
DMS Converter
Convert latitude, longitude or any angle between degrees, minutes and seconds and decimal degrees, with degrees and decimal minutes as well.
Lakh and Crore Converter
Write any number the Indian way, in lakh and crore with Indian commas and in words, next to the international million and billion form, with cheque wording.
Some conversions are easy arithmetic hidden behind a notation that trips people up. A terabyte drive shows as 931 GB because the maker counts in powers of ten and the computer in powers of two, and the IEC names the second family kibi, mebi and gibi to tell them apart. Fuel economy runs in opposite directions: miles per gallon counts distance per fuel and litres per 100 km counts fuel per distance, so the same gain in one is not the same saving in the other. Roman numerals have strict rules that most converters ignore, accepting IIII or IC as if they were valid. And an angle of 30 degrees is exactly π/6 radians, which a decimal hides. Each page here does the conversion exactly and explains the notation behind it.
