NumericalChameleon Description

Free and open source unit converter for your Mac The NumericalChameleon is a free, open source, platform-independent and localized software to convert units. NumericalChameleon converts numbers with a precision of up to 1000 significant figures. NumericalChameleon supports more than 3200 units in 82 categories, including not only all important physical units of categories like area, volume, force, power, temperature, velocity, length, electricity, magnetism, energy, pressure, mass, acceleration,NumericalChameleon provides a modern, dynamic and graphical user interface. Here are some key features of "NumericalChameleon":Flexible InstallationInteractive, graphical Installer which doesn't touch your registryBatch-Installer (with xml config) for the command line to automatize the installation on many clients or for installing the program on a headless server in a network for exampleHighest precisionUnlimited precision before the comma (e. g. 1 Yottabyte = 9671406556917033397649408 Bit)Decimal precision up to 1000 after the comma (e. g. 1 m = 39.370078740157480314960629921259842519685039... inches)Optional scientific notation for resultsTons of categories and unitsSupports more than 3200 units in 81 categories:Standard physical units of all popular categories (A-Z) are supported (angle, counting, length, area, volume, time, temperatures, forces, pressure, frequency, velocity, acceleration, loudness, refraction, si prefixes, data storage, data transfer, screen resolution, electric current, electric density, electric voltage, electric field strength, electric flux density, agility of electrons, electric resistance, electric charge, conductance, capacitance, energy, irradiation, energy density per volume, energy density, heat capacity, entropy, luminous intensity, luminance, luminous flux, illuminance, exposure, luminous flux per radiant flux, power, power per area, power per volume, power per mass, mass, mass per time,

deleting ALL categories, units, icons, filters and themesEasy inputWhile typing values you see the result of the calculation immediatelyIncrease or decrease input values with one mouseclickThere is a graphical user interfaces to pick a Color, supporting the mit HSB- and RBG-modelThere is a graphical user interfaces to pick a Date easilyBuild-in editor with undo and redo functions for making notices and save conversions in several formatsEasy navigationFilter for categories are supported, so you can hide categories you don't want to seeFavorites/Bookmarks are supported for accessing units much quicker(in May 2004, the NC was the first application that introduced this feature in an unit converter) Search for units and categoriesCustomizable outputYou can choose the format for the resultsYou can define your own formatsA step controlled unit list can be generated for one, a few or all targets Requirements: · JRE 1.4.2 or later What's New in This Release: · The NC supports · More
