This module provides types and functions for manipulating unit names.
Please note that the details of the name representation may be less stable than the other APIs provided by this package, as new features using them are still being developed.

Data Types
data UnitName (m :: Metricality) Source #
The name of a unit.
type PrefixName = NameAtom PrefixAtom Source #
The name of a metric prefix.
data Metricality Source #
Encodes whether a unit is a metric unit, that is, whether it can be combined with a metric prefix to form a related unit.
Construction of Unit Names
:: String | Interchange name |
-> String | Abbreviated name in international English |
-> String | Full name in international English |
-> UnitName NonMetric |
Constructs an atomic name for a custom unit.
(*) :: UnitName m1 -> UnitName m2 -> UnitName NonMetric infixl 7 Source #
Form a UnitName
by taking the product of two others.
(/) :: UnitName m1 -> UnitName m2 -> UnitName NonMetric infixl 7 Source #
Form a UnitName
by dividing one by another.
(^) :: UnitName m -> Int -> UnitName NonMetric infixr 8 Source #
Form a UnitName
by raising a name to an integer power.
Standard Names
baseUnitName :: Dimension' -> UnitName NonMetric Source #
The name of the base unit associated with a specified dimension.
siPrefixes :: [Prefix] Source #
A list of all Prefix
es defined by the SI.
Inspecting Prefixes
prefixName :: Prefix -> PrefixName Source #
The name of a metric prefix.
scaleFactor :: Prefix -> Rational Source #
The scale factor denoted by a metric prefix.
Convenience Type Synonyms for Unit Name Transformations
type UnitNameTransformer = forall m. UnitName m -> UnitName NonMetric Source #
The type of a unit name transformation that may be associated with an operation that takes a single unit as input.
type UnitNameTransformer2 = forall m1 m2. UnitName m1 -> UnitName m2 -> UnitName NonMetric Source #
The type of a unit name transformation that may be associated with an operation that takes two units as input.
Forgetting Unwanted Phantom Types
relax :: forall m1 m2. (Typeable m1, Typeable m2) => UnitName m1 -> Maybe (UnitName m2) Source #
Convert a UnitName
of one Metricality
into a name of another metricality by
strengthening or weakening if neccessary. Because it may not be possible to strengthen,
the result is returned in a Maybe
wrapper.
abbreviation_en :: NameAtom m -> String Source #
The abbreviated name of the unit in international English
