mag 0.4.0

Physical quantities and units
Documentation

Mag is a library for dealing with physical quantities and units.

Quantities are created by multiplying scalar values by a unit type. These units are named after common abbreviations:

use mag::{length::{ft, m, mi}, time::{h, s}};

let a = 1.0 * ft; // Length<ft>
let b = a.to::<m>(); // convert to Length<m>
let c = 30 * s; // Period<s>
let d = 60.0 / s; // Frequency<s>
let e = 55.0 * mi / h; // Speed<mi, h>

assert_eq!(a.to_string(), "1 ft");
assert_eq!(b.to_string(), "0.3048 m");
assert_eq!(c.to_string(), "30 s");
assert_eq!(d.to_string(), "60 ㎐");
assert_eq!(e.to_string(), "55 mi/h");

Highlights

  • Easy to understand and use
  • No external dependencies
  • Fast compile time
  • Units are not discarded when creating quantities

Alternative

If mag doesn't fit your needs, you could try the uom crate, which has many more features.
