Potential Discovery or Invention

If textbooks were written for personal customisation, then both modern and ancient minds would receive maximum satisfaction.

Here is the Source text.

The average Nearest Neighbour drill hole collar distance is --@DoUnit(45.9,"m","ft")@--. The size of the RC samples submitted to the laboratory was typically --@DoUnit(3,"kg","lb")@--. The Mineral Resource estimate covers a zone of approximately --@DoUnit(10,"km","mi")@--. In the mantle, temperatures range from approximately --@DoUnit(200,"C","F")@-- at the upper boundary.

Here is the Object text in SI Metric units.

The average Nearest Neighbour drill hole collar distance is 45.9 m. The size of the RC samples submitted to the laboratory was typically 3 kg. The Mineral Resource estimate covers a zone of approximately 10 km. In the mantle, temperatures range from approximately 200 C at the upper boundary.

Here is the Object text in Imperial units.

The average Nearest Neighbour drill hole collar distance is 150.59 ft. The size of the RC samples submitted to the laboratory was typically 6.61 lb. The Mineral Resource estimate covers a zone of approximately 6.21 mi. In the mantle, temperatures range from approximately 392 F at the upper boundary.

The scheme can be extended to create a dynamic textbook with a version in SI metric units only or a version in Imperial units only.
