type "20 miles in km" (without the quotes) into the plain old Google search box and be amazed! Google tries to recognize arithmetic expressions as such, and when it finds one, it evaluates it! Clever - it even recognised furlongs, cubits, leagues and hands. It took a while to find one it didn't recognise: chains. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_(length) |
