A potential typo in the Guidance for Ampere

linforestzhang opened this issue · comments

In ucum.csv, there might exist a typo in the Guidance for Ampere:
unit of electric current equal to flow rate of electrons equal to **16.2415×10^18** elementary charges moving past a boundary in one second or 1 Coulomb/second

Proposed correction:
unit of electric current equal to flow rate of electrons equal to **6.2415×10^18** elementary charges moving past a boundary in one second or 1 Coulomb/second

This and the other two typos are now fixed in the demo app at (https://ucum.nlm.nih.gov/ucum-lhc/demo.html), but the fix for the library itself is still under review. (Not that that the typo fixes need review, but some other issues arose with the build).

This is now fixed in version 5.0.3.
