    This translates to a hoppus foot being equal to 1.273 cubic feet (2,200 in 3; 0.0360 m 3). The hoppus board foot, when milled, yields about one board foot. The volume yielded by the quarter-girth formula is 78.54% of cubic measure (i.e. 1 ft 3 = 0.7854 h ft; 1 h ft = 1.273 ft 3). [42]

Gi B/s is gibi bytes per second where 1 gibi byte equals 1 073 741 824 bytes. Ti B/s is tebi bytes per second where 1 tebi byte equals 1 099 511 627 776 bytes."

  5. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    An adult human foot is about 28 cm (11 in) long. The decimetre ( SI symbol: dm ) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −1 metres ( ⁠ 1 / 10 ⁠ m = 0.1 m ). To help compare different orders of magnitude , this section lists lengths between 10 centimeters and 100 centimeters (10 −1 meter and 1 meter).

    Lawsuits arising from alleged consumer confusion over the binary and decimal definitions of multiples of the byte have generally ended in favor of the manufacturers, with courts holding that the legal definition of gigabyte or GB is 1 GB = 1 000 000 000 (10 9) bytes (the decimal definition), rather than the binary definition (2 30, i.e., 1 073 ...

    Although Excel nominally works with 8-byte numbers by default, VBA has a variety of data types. The Double data type is 8 bytes, the Integer data type is 2 bytes, and the general purpose 16 byte Variant data type can be converted to a 12 byte Decimal data type using the VBA conversion function CDec.
