Summary : A library for manipulating units of physical quantities
URL : http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/udunits/
License : UCAR
Description : The Unidata units utility, udunits2, supports conversion of unit specifications
: between formatted and binary forms, arithmetic manipulation of unit
: specifications, and conversion of values between compatible scales of
: measurement. A unit is the amount by which a physical quantity is measured. For
: example:
:
: Physical Quantity Possible Unit
: _________________ _____________
: time weeks
: distance centimeters
: power watts
:
: This utility works interactively and has two modes. In one mode, both an input
: and output unit specification are given, causing the utility to print the
: conversion between them. In the other mode, only an input unit specification is
: given. This causes the utility to print the definition -- in standard units --
: of the input unit.
