There is a few things I wanted but mostly missing in these type of calculators. More Units.

K for Thousands, M for Million, B for Billion and T for Trillion.

Some Calculators either dont offer these, or they do but with different Letters representation because M, B and T are used for something else. IMO this seems backwards because those are the most common unit in analysis.

Other Units including PB for Petabytes, TB. GB, MB, KB, as well as Mbps to Gbps unit conversion. us, ms, ns, for Latency calculation.

Getting Market Cap, P/E data etc from Yahoo Finance.

Ahh you have no idea how much trouble I have with unit clashes, not to mention stock price / currencies (btw stocks aren't in at the moment).

It's on the roadmap though and good to see others have the same idea!

Worth mentioning is Stock / prices with Date or Current.

For example I want to do a comparison between certain period of time, so Market Cap are specific to those Date.

In another example I want to keep an eye on Big Tech's current market Cap, and the list would update every day. Giving me an overview of current situation.
