Conversion Formula
// Solana unit conversion
const LAMPORTS_PER_SOL = 1_000_000_000; // 10^9
function solToLamports(sol) {
return sol * LAMPORTS_PER_SOL;
}
function lamportsToSol(lamports) {
return lamports / LAMPORTS_PER_SOL;
}
// Example conversions
const sol = 1.5;
const lamports = solToLamports(sol);
// Output: 1.5 SOL = 1500000000 LamportsPrecision Handling
