Welcome to The units library user guide and documentation!¶
A library that provides runtime unit values, instead of individual unit types, for the purposes of working with units of measurement at run time possibly from user input or configuration files. It supports conversion and interpretation of units to and from string representations.
This software was developed for use in LLNL/GridDyn, and is currently a work in progress. Namespaces, function names, and code organization is subject to change, input is welcome.
The Introduction is a discussion about the why? and How the library came together and a generally what it does and how it was tested. The Installation and Linking guide is a discussion about linking and using the library, and the User Guide is the how-to about how to use the software library. For the details see Details and to try out some of the string conversions check out Units on the Web
