UCUM is the Unified Code for Units of Measure.

This crate is a (partial) implementation of the revision 442 of the UCUM specification.

Quick start

use ucum::prelude::*;

let system = UnitSystem::<f64>::default();
let q1 = system.parse("35.5 km/h")?;
let q2 = system.parse("1.1e1 m.s-1")?;
assert!(q1 < q2);
assert!(2*q1 > q2);
