Having grown up with the 'imperial' system of measurement firmly lodged
in my brain, I find all this Metric lark a bit confusing!
For example, I hate decorating at the best of times but when I have to convert the measurements of a room from square inches to square meters in order to calculate how much paint I'm going to need. I usually end up sitting in a corner gibbering quietly to myself!
All this changed recently when we decorated the kitchen - thanks to
CONVERTER by Robert Cooper. This is a completely menu driven program which allows you to convert:
Celcius to Fahrenheit,
Fahrenheit to Celcius,
Centimetres to Inches,
Inches to Centimetres,
Metres to Inches,
Inches to Metres,
Miles to Kilometres,
Kilometres to Miles.
Now none of us have got any excuse for getting our sums wrong!!
