This is a C# library that provides useful functionalities for unit conversion.
In physics and other sciences, a quantity is a property that can be measured or calculated, such as length, time, mass, or temperature. A unit is a standard of measurement used to quantify a particular quantity, such as meters for length, seconds for time, kilograms for mass, or degrees Celsius for temperature. A dimension is a fundamental physical parameter that describes the nature of a quantity, such as the dimension of length, time, mass, or temperature.
For example, the quantity of length can be measured in units of meters, feet, or inches, and has a dimension of L (length). The quantity of time can be measured in units of seconds, minutes, or hours, and has a dimension of T (time). The quantity of mass can be measured in units of kilograms, grams, or pounds, and has a dimension of M (mass). The quantity of temperature can be measured in units of Celsius, Fahrenheit, or Kelvin, and has a dimension of Θ (temperature).
You can install Library Name via NuGet:
PM> Install-Package UnitServiceTo use UnitService, simply add a reference to the library in your C# project and include the appropriate using directive:
using UnitService.Core.Constants;
using UnitService.Core.Models;Then, you can use the various classes and methods provided by the library:
UnitRegistry.RegisterUnit("METER", new Unit("METER", "m", (1, 0), Dimensions.LENGTH));
UnitRegistry.RegisterUnit("KILOMETER", new Unit("KILOMETER", "km", (0.001, 0), Dimensions.LENGTH));
Quantity distanceInMeter = new Quantity(100, UnitRegistry.GetUnit("METER"));
Quantity distanceInKilometer = distanceInMeter.ConvertTo("KILOMETER");For detailed documentation on how to use Library Name, see the Wiki.
