Number::DataRate - Convert data rate to bits or bytes per second
# Bluetooth 2.0+EDR has a data rate of 3000 kbit/s, but what is that # in bits and bytes per second? use Number::DataRate; my $data_rate = Number::DataRate->new; my $bits_per_second = $data_rate->to_bits_per_second('3000 kbit/s'); my $bytes_per_second = $data_rate->to_bytes_per_second('3000 kbit/s');
