Easily use and manipulate unit-aware measurements in Python
Project description
Easily use and manipulate unit-aware measurement objects in Python.
django.contrib.gis.measure has these wonderful ‘Distance’ objects that can be used not only for storing a unit-aware distance measurement, but also for converting between different units and adding/subtracting these objects from one another.
This module not only provides those Distance and Area measurement objects, but also other measurements including:
Energy
Speed
Temperature
Time
Volume
Weight
Example:
>>> from measurement.measures import Weight
>>> weight_1 = Weight(lb=125)
>>> weight_2 = Weight(kg=40)
>>> added_together = weight_1 + weight_2
>>> added_together
Weight(lb=213.184976807)
>>> added_together.kg # Maybe I actually need this value in kg?
