PyCUC 1.2.0

PyCUC: A lightweight Python package for creating custom unit conversions.

Python Custom Unit Converter (PyCUC)

Python Custom Unit Converter (PyCUC) is an open-source package designed to simplify unit conversions in Python. With PyCUC, you can effortlessly create custom conversion factors, convert between units, and streamline calculations in various fields, such as physics, engineering, and scientific computing.

Key Features:

• Custom Conversion Factors: Define your own conversion factors for unique units.

• Flexible Unit Conversions: Convert between units with ease, using a simple and intuitive methods.

• Lightweight: Minimal dependencies and optimized for performance.

• Easy to Use: Simple installation and straightforward usage.

Google Colab

You can use the following code to run PyCUC in Google Colab:

Installation

Install PyCUC with pip

import pycuc

# check version

print(pycuc.__version__)

Usage Example

• CHECK REFERENCES

print(pycuc.check_reference('pressure'))

• CREATE A CUSTOM UNIT CONVERTER

# ! pressure

my_cuc_1 = pycuc.create_cuc(1, 'MPa')

# convert to Pa

print(my_cuc_1.convert('Pa'))

print(my_cuc_1.convert('bar'))

print(my_cuc_1.convert('kPa'))



# ! temperature

my_cuc_2 = pycuc.create_cuc(358, 'K')

# convert to K

print(my_cuc_2.convert('C'))

print(my_cuc_2.convert('F'))

print(my_cuc_2.convert('R'))

• CONVERT FROM TO

# ! pressure

print(pycuc.convert_from_to(1, 'MPa', 'Pa'))

# ! temperature

print(pycuc.convert_from_to(358, 'K', 'C'))

print(pycuc.convert_from_to(25, 'C', 'K'))

• CONVERT FROM TO (short format)

# ! pressure

print(pycuc.to(125, 'MPa => Pa'))

# ! temperature

print(pycuc.to(360, 'K => C'))

print(pycuc.to(250, 'C => K'))

• DEFINE A NEW UNIT

# ! heat capacity unit: J/mol.K

my_cuc_3 = pycuc.create_cuc(25, 'J/mol.K')

# add custom

my_cuc_3.add_custom_unit('J/mol.K', 1)

my_cuc_3.add_custom_unit('kJ/mol.K', 1000)

# conversion

print(my_cuc_3.convert('J/mol.K'))

print(my_cuc_3.convert('kJ/mol.K'))

• CHECK REFERENCE

# ! pressure

print(my_cuc_3.check_reference('pressure'))

# ! temperature

print(my_cuc_3.check_reference('temperature'))

# ! custom

print(my_cuc_3.check_reference('custom'))
