So I’m working on a floor covering ios app, mostly to keep my brain from going completely soft but also because I can’t hump floors in forever. This is mostly a learning app, I’m not sure if I will sell it or give it away, if it ever gets finished at all. It keeps track of customers, jobs, money spent on materials, etc. It’s sort of a general purpose installers app. It just sort of dawned on me that Ive got everything formatted in feet and inches and if I was to eventually want to do something with it, I would probably want to support communist, er I mean metric measurements. The problem is I have no idea how that stuff is written down.
I know that everything is based off the meter. Is there a symbol for that? In ‘Merican I would write 12 feet 4 inches like 12’4”, how would you write down a room size in meters? I guess you would also use centimeters? Would you get in to millimeters? How would you shorthanded it if you were scratching it out on a piece of paper or better yet on the phone?
