unitconverter 1.1.0

Unit Converter

Description
Package for converting quantities into different units.


Basic usages
>>> from unit_converter.converter import convert, converts
>>>
>>> convert('2.78 daN*mm^2', 'mN*µm^2')
>>> Decimal('2.78E+10')
>>>
>>> converts('2.78 daN*mm^2', 'mN*µm^2')
>>> '2.78E+10'
>>>
>>> converts('78 min', 'h')
>>> '1.3'
>>>
>>> converts('52°C', '°F')
>>> '125.6'
>>>
>>> converts('120 km*h^-1', 'mile*h^-1')
>>> '74.56454306848007635409210214'

Note: It is necessary to provide the value as a string. Indeed, the high precision of conversion (1E-27) is possible only with string, by using Decimal object in replacement of float object.
