Template talk:Convert

Accuracy
Don't know if it's just me that noticed this, but I've seen that the convert template is not overly accurate at times. For example 300 meters to feet is 984.252, but with the template we get 300 m. It's kind of minor, but is there a way to fix this? -- NightHammer (talk)(contribs) 10:56, 10 December 2015 (EST)


 * It would appear that you would need to specify the significant figure of the conversion to get it to be more accurate. Try using . For example, the template with a parameter of 6 for the significant figure now gives us 300 m.—  subtank   11:12, 10 December 2015 (EST)


 * Huh, I had figured  was just for decimal places. Good to know, thanks! -- NightHammer (talk)(contribs) 11:21, 10 December 2015 (EST)

 * Ya, that makes sense in hindsight. -- NightHammer (talk)(contribs) 11:30, 10 December 2015 (EST)
