GNU Units can convert quantities expressed in one unit to an equivalent in a
|
||
|
difference scale. Compared to traditional BSD implementations, it offers more
|
||
|
units, non-linear conversions (e.g. between degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit), a
|
||
|
more lenient input parser, and tab completion. It can also be used to perform
|
||
|
calculations taking physical units into account, and provide the definitions of
|
||
|
units (e.g. "joule = N m = 1 kg m^2 / s^2").
