Notes on Units
Mixing Units & Plain Numbers
When mixing plain numbers with units, the nearest unit will be used automatically. This is called unit assimilation.
Adding & Subtracting Mixed Units
When doing calculations with mixed unit types, the larger unit wins:
When units don't share a common base unit, the last used unit wins:
Multiplying Units
Soulver only supports units that have been pre-defined in its math engine, not compound units that do "not exist":
Soulver will make an implicit rate when a supported unit cannot be created through multiplication:
Unit Formatting
Soulver displays a unit's symbol rather than its full name in the answer column.
You may, however, use the full unit name in expressions. Most units have multiple aliases, depending on your preference.
Adding Additional Units
You can add additional units to Soulver in the Calculator > Custom units
settings.
Custom units are defined in terms of an existing units. You cannot add new unit categories to Soulver at this time.
