UnitSet.convertToUnitSet

convertToUnitSet(convertToSet, value, energyDim, forceDim, lengthDim, massDim, timeDim, temperatureDim, [perLengthDim])

Modify the second argument (which is assumed to be given in this object units) and convert it to the first argument, which is assumed to be an UnitSet object (or the name thereof). For futher details see convertToSI

convertToSet string or UnitSet Unit set to modify the value to

value variant value to modify

energyDim integer exponent of energy

forceDim integer exponent of force

lengthDim integer exponent of length

massDim integer exponent of mass

timeDim integer exponent of time

temperatureDim integer exponent of temperature

perLengthDim optional integer 0 (the default) for most quantities. 1 for quantities that are 'per unit length', such as "mm²/m". Similarly 2 and 3 for quantities that are per unit area or volume.

Return value none
