Novak: Conversion of Units of Measurement. IEEE Trans. on Software Engineering, vol. 21, no. 8 (Aug. 1995), pp. 651-661. (Available online at [[http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/novak/units95.html]]). Correctness of unit conversion is established by the technique of dimensional analysis: the source and goal units must have the same dimensions. Following Novak, this extension defines a dimension as an 8-vector of integral powers of the following base quantities: <enscript highlight="scheme"> (define-base-quantity Unity 0) (define-base-quantity Length dimvals[0]) (define-base-quantity Time dimvals[1]) (define-base-quantity Temperature dimvals[2]) (define-base-quantity Mass dimvals[3]) (define-base-quantity Current dimvals[4]) (define-base-quantity Luminosity dimvals[5]) (define-base-quantity Substance dimvals[6]) (define-base-quantity Currency dimvals[7]) (define-base-quantity Information dimvals[8]) </enscript> The unit conversion routine uses dimension integers to check that the requested unit conversion is legitimate. For example, the conversion from kilograms to meters illegal. Consequently, the dimensionality of each unit must be specified when the unit is declared. <enscript highlight="scheme"> ;; Syntax is (define-unit name quantity factor abbreviation ...) ;; define units of length (define-unit meter Length 1.0 m meters) (define-unit inch Length 254/10000 in inches) ;; define units of mass and time (define-unit kilogram Mass 1.0 kg kilograms) (define-unit second Time 1.0 s seconds) ;; define two new derived quantities: acceleration and force (define-quantity Acceleration (/ Length (** Time 2))) (define-quantity Force (* Mass Acceleration)) ;; define a unit of force (define-unit newton Force (/ (* kilogram meter) (* second second)) nt newtons) </enscript> Now only conversion between units of the same dimensionality is permitted: <enscript highlight="scheme"> (unit-convert meter inch 1) -> 5000/127 (unit-convert meter inch 2 3 4) -> (10000/127 15000/127 20000/127) (unit-convert meter kilogram 1) Error: (unitconv) unit-convert : given units are of different dimensions: source= #(unit meter (m meters) [Length] 1.0) ; dest= #(unit kilogram (kg kilograms) [Mass] 1.0) </enscript> === Procedures and Macros <procedure>unit-convert:: SRC * DEST * [VAL1 ...] -> (FACTOR1 ... )</procedure> Converts the given numeric values expressed in unit {{SRC}} to their equivalents in unit {{DEST}}. Arguments {{SRC, DEST}} are records of type {{unit}}. See the definitions below for information about the units that are defined by this extension, as well as for information about creating new units. <procedure>unit-equal?:: UNIT1 * UNIT2 -> BOOL</procedure> Returns true if the two units have the same dimension and factor, false otherwise. <macro>(define-quantity name expr)</macro> Defines a derivative quantity {{NAME}}. {{EXPR}} is an S-expression with the following syntax: quantity-expr ::= base-quantity | derived-quantity | (* quantity-expr quantity-expr) | (* quantity-expr integer) | (/ quantity-expr quantity-expr) | (/ quantity-expr integer) | (** quantity-expr integer) where ; {{base-quantity}} : one of the predefined base quantities ; {{derived-quantity}} : a quantity created by {{define-quantity}} ; {{**}} : exponentiation operator <macro>(define-unit name dims factor . abbrevs)</macro> Defines a variable {{NAME}} that holds a unit definition of a unit with the given dimension and factor. {{DIMS}} can be either one of the base quantities (see next section) or a derivative quantity created by {{define-quantity}}. <macro>(define-prefix-unit unit prefix . abbrevs)</macro> Defines a variable whose name is the concatenated {{PREFIX}} and {{UNIT}} and that holds a unit definition of the given unit and prefix. === Predefined Quantities ==== Base Quantities ;
