Usage
This template converts a population and area to a density.
{{Pop density|number of people|numerical value of area|unit of area|area unit to convert to}}
Examples
{{Pop density|120|240|km2|sqmi}}
→ "0.500/km2 (1.29/sq mi)"{{Pop density|1600|600|sqmi|km2}}
→ "2.67/sq mi (1.03/km2)"
- rounding
{{Pop density|120|240|km2|sqmi
→ "0.5/km2 (1.3/sq mi)"|prec=1
}}
- no conversion
{{Pop density|120|240|km2}}
→ "0.500/km2"
- reverse outputs
{{Pop density|1600|600|sqmi|km2
→ "1.03/km2 (2.67/sq mi)"|flip=on
}}
- give only raw numerical output
{{Pop density|120|240|km2
→ "0.500"|disp=num
}}{{Pop density|1600|600|sqmi
→ "2.67"|disp=num
}}{{Pop density|120|240|km2|sqmi
→ "1.29"|disp=num
}}{{Pop density|1600|600|sqmi|km2
→ "1.03"|disp=num
}}
