Template:Bra size: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 22:50, 29 April 2008

This template

automatically converts US and European bra sizes and displays both,
automatically recognises if you specify a US or European band size (the number in the bra size),
automatically converts the "American DD" phenomenon to normal bra sizes (e. g. DD = E, DDD = F), but adds the multiple letter cup size as well,
displays only the cup size if you do not specify the band size,
displays an error if you
- specify an unrealistic band size (e. g. a 28C bra does not exist),
- specify an uneven band size (US) or a band size not divisible by 5 (Europe) (these do not exist),
- specify a cup size smaller than C (not allowed on Boobpedia),
- do not specify a cup size (a single band size is useless).

In order to keep the code clear and readable, this template uses two sub-templates:

Convert cup
- converts double and triple letter cup sizes to normal ones,
- checks if the cup size is smaller than C
- gives back a clickable single letter cup size
Split bra
- recognises if US or European band size is specified,
- checks if band size is uneven or not divisible by 5,
- gives back both US and European bra sizes.

The syntax is very simple:

{{bra size|band=<band size>|cup=<cup size>}}

band

Number. Unrealistic numbers lead to an error.
Optional. <band size> or the whole parameter band=<band size> can be omitted.
You do not have to specify if the number is a US or European measurement. The template sorts this out for you.
