Unit Converter: Part I (Mass Converter)

This is a very basic engineering Mass converter. The following units can be converted with the use of this example:

Grams, Kilograms, Metric tonnes, Short ton, Long ton, Pounds, Ounces



Step 1

First we create Buttons to enter the numbers, a TextBox to show the result and a ListBox to show the sub units of the Mass Unit, like Grams, etc. like this:



The following ListBox will be shown when we click on the From and To Units:



Step 2

After that we will use two classes, one for the Mass List and the other is MassUnit. These files are basically used to fill the ListBox. First we will write the code for Mass Unit:

Here we include a .cs file (MassUnit.cs):

After that we will write the code for MassList.cs:

After that we will write the following code to fill the ListBox in the Mass.xaml.cs page like this:

Now we will write the code for our From ListBox:
