Abstract Apparatus for converting input data which includes data expressed in a basic unit and data expressed in a unit other than the basic unit into a data of the basic unit comprises data input means, an operation unit connected to receive the output data from the data input means, memory means in which the output of the operating unit is stored, unit indicating means for generating signals corresponding to respective units of the input data, and control means responsive to the signals generated by the unit indicating means, said control means including means for storing the input data in the memory means when the unit indicating means produces a signal corresponding to the basic unit of the input data, means for causing the operation unit to convert input data expressed in a unit other than the basic unit into data of the basic unit when the unit indicating means produces a signal indicating that said input data is expressed in a unit other than the basic unit, means for causing the operation unit to operate to add the converted data to the data which has been stored in the memory means, and means for storing the result of the addition operation in the memory means.
