How to convert units in general

Conversions can be done either with the "->" conversion operator or with the equivalent "convert" function. The function has three parameters: a quantity, a unit to convert from and a unit to convert to. Likewise the conversion operator uses three values: the quantity and unit to convert from are placed on the left side of the operator while the unit to convert to goes to the right side.

Luminous Intensity Units

The basic unit of luminous intensity is the candela. All units of luminous intensity are expressed in terms of this base unit and so measurements can be converted from any one of the following units to any other.

bougie
decimal bougie, 1/20 violle: 1.0085 candela
candela [also: candle]
Basic unit of luminous intensity: 1 candela
candleInt
international candle: 1.01937 candela
carcel
lamp-based unit: 9.74 candela
hefner
lamp-based unit: 0.903 candela
violle
platinum-based unit: 20.17 candela
