Classes

Dimension(dims) Stores the indices of the 7 basic SI unit dimension (length, mass, etc.).

Quantity A number with an associated physical dimension.
Unit(value[, dim, scale]) A physical unit.
UnitRegistry() Stores known units for printing in best units.

Functions

all_registered_units(*regs) Generator returning all registered units.
check_units(**au) Decorator to check units of arguments passed to a function
fail_for_dimension_mismatch(obj1[, obj2, ...]) Compare the dimensions of two objects.
get_dimensions(obj) Return the dimensions of any object that has them.
get_or_create_dimension(*args, **kwds) Create a new Dimension object or get a reference to an existing one.
get_unit(x, *regs) Find the most appropriate consistent unit from the unit registries.
get_unit_fast(x) Return a Quantity with value 1 and the same dimensions.
get_unit_for_display(x) Return a string representation of the most appropriate unit or '1' for
have_same_dimensions(obj1, obj2) Test if two values have the same dimensions.
in_best_unit(x[, precision]) Represent the value in the “best” unit.
in_unit(x, u[, precision]) Display a value in a certain unit with a given precision.
is_dimensionless(obj) Test if a value is dimensionless or not.
is_scalar_type(obj) Tells you if the object is a 1d number type.
quantity_with_dimensions(floatval, dims) Create a new Quantity with the given dimensions.
register_new_unit(u) Register a new unit for automatic displaying of quantities
unregister_unit(u) Remove a previously registered unit for automatic displaying of
wrap_function_change_dimensions(func, ...) Returns a new function that wraps the given function func so that it changes the dimensions of its input.
wrap_function_dimensionless(func) Returns a new function that wraps the given function func so that it raises a DimensionMismatchError if the function is called on a quantity with dimensions (excluding dimensionless quantitities).
wrap_function_keep_dimensions(func) Returns a new function that wraps the given function func so that it keeps the dimensions of its input.
wrap_function_remove_dimensions(func) Returns a new function that wraps the given function func so that it removes any dimensions from its input.

Objects

DIMENSIONLESS The singleton object for dimensionless Dimensions.
additional_unit_register UnitRegistry containing additional units (newton*metre, farad / metre, ...)
standard_unit_register UnitRegistry containing all the standard units (metre, kilogram, um2...)
user_unit_register UnitRegistry containing all units defined by the user
