Template talk:Volume
Table usage example
[edit]See m:Help talk:Calculation#Calculations within a table.
Examples:
| 3 | 2 | 5 | 30 |
| BCI# | Volts | Length (in) | Width (in) | Height (in) | Volume | Type | Capacity (AH) | CCA | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| U1 | 12 | 7.71 | 5.18 | 6.89 | 275.17 | deep cycle & marine | 32 |

Overhaul
[edit]I went looking for a volume template, saw that this had been userspaced as "not ready for prime-time", so I just overhauled it:
- Now has documentation.
- Produces useful output by default.
- Produces the original highly specialized table output as a parameter options
- Supports multiple levels of rounding.
- Is categorized as a maths function template.
- Lives in the "Template:" namespace again.
It should probably be "See also" linked from some other places, and added to lists of maths calculation templates, but I dunno about that stuff; I'll drop a note over at WT:MATHS.
It should likely also be upgraded further to support both units and conversion, though I've documented some workarounds in the interim.
PS: It's also just doing cubic volume basic calculation, not anything like converting L×W×D/H into gallons or whatever.
