Unit conversions

[mikehayesuk]

Hi

Thanks for a nice library. I'd like to be able to do something like this:

Binary::megabytes(15360)->as('GB'); // result = (int)15

If I gave this a go at some point would you accept a PR? Any advice on how you would prefer it to work?

Thanks,
Mike

Sure, PRs are more than welcome and the proposed API is nice and useful so please give it a try.

Please in you PR:

• keep the formatting style
• unit test the whole thing
• don't brake previous tests

I'll try to give you feedback as quickly as possibile 😄

@mhayes14, do you plan to create a PR for this proposed feature?

Was this ever implemented? On the package description it states that it converts, but it only formats, compares and manipulates.

+1, would be great to have unit conversion separated from the formatting !
