::::::<code>exp_multiplier</code> stands for expotential multiplier and it stores the value of <code>eng_scales</code>, so the text of <code>eng_scales</code> can be also declened based on forms of numbers, like milion, miliony, milioniv, miliona.
::::::Although I did the modification, I tried without those modifications and a bug was present. [[User:Repakr|Repakr]] ([[User talk:Repakr|talk]]) 13:12, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
Testing on this problem is at [[:uk:User:Johnuniq/convert]] with discussion at [[:uk:User talk:Johnuniq/convert]]. The bug seems to have been present since the original <code>varname</code> used for certain languages was developed more than ten years ago.

== Call from other Lua module ==
There currently doesn't seem to be an easy way to call this module from another Lua module. I made a small change to the sandbox code [[Special:Diff/1252830342/1303398379|here]] that works well in my tests, and if there are no objections I can implement it in the main module. <span class="nowrap">--[[User:Ahecht|Ahecht]] ([[User talk:Ahecht|<b style="color:#FFF;background:#04A;display:inline-block;padding:1px;vertical-align:middle;font:bold 50%/1 sans-serif;text-align:center">TALK<br />PAGE</b>]])</span> 19:02, 30 July 2025 (UTC)
:Doesn't the 'standard' naming style (if there is one) use an underscore-prefixed function name for functions called from an external module as a way to distinguish those functions from template-called function names? So instead of <code>do_convert</code> it would be <code>_main_convert</code>? That seems to be in keeping with [[Module:Convert]]'s use of an underscore prefix for the helper function <code>_unit</code> which is called from another module.

::@[[User:Trappist the monk|Trappist the monk]] Makes sense, I've updated the sandbox. <span class="nowrap">--[[User:Ahecht|Ahecht]] ([[User talk:Ahecht|<b style="color:#FFF;background:#04A;display:inline-block;padding:1px;vertical-align:middle;font:bold 50%/1 sans-serif;text-align:center">TALK<br />PAGE</b>]])</span> 19:23, 30 July 2025 (UTC)
:::The sandbox code looks good to me. I put a test at [[Module:Sandbox/Johnuniq/temp]] with result at [[Module talk:Sandbox/Johnuniq/temp|talk]]. [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 04:25, 31 July 2025 (UTC)
