Meaning of the word
The meaning of the word "convert" in the economy is closely related to the interaction of currencies. Currency convertibility is a parameter that indicates the ability of currencies to exchange among themselves. Currency is considered convertible if any person, having come to the bank, can exchange it for any other or precious metals. Simply put, if a currency is convertible, then you can purchase a certain amount of foreign currency for it.
Not so long ago, this word began to be used in a PC environment. In the lexicon of PC users, convertible is a file whose resolution can be changed. There are converter programs. They are used not only to calculate how much n-currency will cost to buy one unit of another. Thanks to programmers, converters were also created that allow you to freely change file permissions to others. For example, in a music converter, the resolution of an audio recording can be changed from MP3 to WAV or MP4. At the moment, it is possible to change the resolution of any file, but not in any. For example, you cannot convert a picture to a file with a resolution of PSD - a specialized resolution of the program Adobe Photoshop.
