Overview

The Units.jl provides a framework for manipulating units and physical quantities in Julia. Units.jl uses the type system for performant execution while permitting flexible user-defined units. This documentation is currently under construction.

Units.jl aims to include the following features:

  • SI and CGS units
  • User defined units
  • Unit conversion
  • Prefixes and unit abbreviations
  • Dimensional analysis
  • Physical constants defined from NISTs CODATA
  • Intelligent conversion to preferred units
  • CGS electromagnetic unit systems

Other Projects

Other active projects that support unit analysis in Julia include Physical.jl and SIUnits.jl.
