Quant

A library that makes it easy to work w/ Dimensions, Units, and Physical Quantities. It is currently a complete work in progress.

Example

Start by adding the following to your Cargo.toml file:

Crates

[dependencies]
quant = "*"

Then add the following to your main.rs file:

extern crate quant;

use quant::{kilogram, metre, second};

fn main() {
  let kilogram = kilogram();
  let distance = metre();
  let time = second();
  let interval = time.clone();

  println!("One newton (N) is the force needed to accelerate \
    {} of mass at the rate of {} per {} per {}.",
    kilogram, distance, time, interval);

  let speed = distance.per(time);
  let acceleration = speed.per(interval);
  let newton = kilogram * acceleration;

  println!("{}", newton.named()) // 1 newton
}

TODO

• Documentation.
• More tests.
• named method for derived units.
• Implement other unimplemented methods.
• Parser.
• Check uncertainty for methods such as pow, mul, etc.
• Trig. functions for rad.
• Update description.
