Welcome to unitc’s documentation!
unitc is a simple Python 3 module to perform conversions between measurement units.
>>> from unitc import unit_conversion
# Convert 1 kg to pounds
>>> unit_conversion(1, 'kg', 'lb')
2.204623
>>> unit_conversion(1, from_unit='kg', to_unit='lb')
2.204623
# If the conversion is done to or from SI units, they don't need to be specified explicitely
>>> unit_conversion(1, 'ft') # Converts 1 ft to m
0.3047999902464003
>>> unit_conversion(1, to_unit='HP') # Converts 1 W to horse power (HP)
0.001341022
# Unit conversion works also with lists and arrays
>>> a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
>>> unit_conversion(a, 'kPa', 'lbf/ft²')
array([ 20.88543648, 41.77087296, 62.65630944, 83.54174592, 104.42718239])
>>> b = np.array([2, 5, 8, 7])
>>> unit_conversion(b, 'kt', 'm/s')
array([1.02888947, 2.57222367, 4.11555787, 3.60111313])
# Input units can be specified in the input value as a string
>>> unit_conversion('4 g/cm³', to_unit='lb/in³')
